Ina Garten Peach Clafoutis Recipe
The Ina Garten peach clafoutis recipe is light, fruity and perfect for summer desserts. I love how simple it is to make. This dessert combines juicy peaches with a soft, custard-like batter.
Ingredients
- 4 –5 ripe peaches peeled and sliced
- 3 large eggs
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1 cup whole milk
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter melted
- Powdered sugar for dusting optional
Instructions
Preheat the oven
- Set your oven to 350°F (175°C). Butter your baking dish well to prevent sticking.
Prepare the peaches
- Peel the peaches carefully, remove the pits and slice them evenly. Set aside in a bowl.
Make the batter
- Whisk together eggs, sugar, flour, milk, vanilla and salt until smooth. Ensure no lumps remain.
Add melted butter
- Stir in the melted butter gently. This keeps the custard smooth and adds richness to the batter.
Arrange peaches in dish
- Place peach slices evenly in the buttered baking dish. Spread them so each bite has fruit.
Pour batter over peaches
- Slowly pour the custard batter over the peaches. Ensure the peaches are mostly covered.
Bake the clafoutis
- Place the dish in the oven and bake for 40–45 minutes. Custard should be set and slightly golden.
Cool slightly
- Remove from oven and let it cool for 10–15 minutes. This helps the custard firm up a little.
Serve
- Dust with powdered sugar if desired. Serve warm or at room temperature for best flavor.
Notes
- Use ripe, juicy peaches for sweetness
- Butter the baking dish well to avoid sticking
- Mix batter gently to avoid overworking flour
- Bake until lightly golden on top
- Let it cool slightly before serving
