Cherry amaretto clafouti tart with almond praline
Alcoholic beverages
Italian cuisine
Wherever I read about clafoutis, I read the same phrase "like a tart". So why not make it exactly like one? The silky custard-like filling is matched perfectly with the crumbly almond crust. The clafoutis is baked traditionally with unpitted cherries - the pits impart an almond-like flavor when cooked. To mirror this without the inconvenience of spitting out cherry pits, I've added a splash of Amaretto to the filling. Almond praline - that caramelized golden dust - replaces the traditional powdered sugar that is sprinkled over the clafoutis. These updates turn this simple dessert into a luxurious affair while still retaining its homey comfort. - Heena
