Strawberry Clafoutis (Clafoutis aux Fraises)

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 390 F/200  C. Grease two 12 oz. porcelain ramekins or one large ramekin with butter and sprinkle with granulated sugar. Wash strawberries under cool water, drain in a colander, and hull them using a strawberry huller. Cut berries into halves or quarters lengthwise and place them at the bottom of the prepared mold/s.

Step 2

In a mixing bowl, place corn starch, sugar, and salt. Add the whole egg and the beaten yolk and mix with a hand whisk. Incorporate milk, heavy cream, and mix until you obtain a smooth batter. Pour the preparation over strawberries.

Step 3

Bake for 35 to 40 minutes until puffy and golden brown. Serve warm or cold from ramekins or baking dish. Dust with icing (powdered) sugar.
