10 French Pastries You’ll Never Get Enough Of

10. Clafoutis

A rustic French dessert made by baking fresh fruit, typically cherries, in a simple, custard-like batter. Originating from the Limousin region, clafoutis is traditionally made with whole, unpitted cherries, which enhance the flavor during baking. The batter, similar to that of crêpes, surrounds the fruit, creating a soft, pudding-like texture.

Cherries are the classic choice but variations can be made with other fruits like plums, apples, or blackberries. Served warm, it’s often dusted with powdered sugar.
