Method

  • step 1

    Grind the almonds to a very fine powder in a small food processor then blend in the flour and salt. Add the sugar, whole eggs, yolks and cream. Whizz until creamy smooth. (If you’re making ahead, tip the batter into a jug at this point and store in the fridge for up to 24 hours.)

  • step 2

    When ready to cook, preheat the oven to 200C/gas 6/fan 180C. Butter eight 10cm gratin dishes. Scatter the blueberries in the bottom.

  • step 3

    Give the batter a good stir, pour into the dishes and bake for about 18-20 minutes, or until risen and lightly firm. Dust with icing sugar and serve warm.

RECIPE TIPS
IN TWO LARGE DISHES

If you prefer, you can make the clafoutis in two 20cm gratin dishes (or shallow flan dishes). Bake them at 190C/gas 5/fan 170C, for about 25-30 minutes.

If you are using one dish instead of 6 individual ones, I would turn up the oven slightly (+220C) and bake for longer. (Keep your eye on it after 30 mins)

I made this for the first time and I tried doing it in one large dish. Whether the oven wasn't hot enough or not I'm not quite sure but it took a long long time to cook. When I took it out in the end it was still rather moist in the middle (but I wasn't sure whether it was supposed to be like that…

Never tried blueberry and almond in clafoutis before, and this is absolutely delicious. The almonds add a little nutty flavor and texture. Will keep this to my favorite recipe book!

This is absolutely delicious. I've never made a clafoutis before and this was a real hit. After the first one, I was asked to make it again the next day! Any time I want a special pudding, out comes the clafoutis.

Tasted lovely, easy to make and good if you make in advance. I cooked mine in one silicone baking dish and it still worked out great. I also found that most people had never heard of it so it was a novelty.
