Part soufflé, part custard, and a bit like a puffy-creamy pancake, this classic, rustic French dessert is easy and fast to make. It’s also perfect for a brunch or breakfast.
Equipment:
- 9-inch round baking dish or pie dish
Ingredients List
- 2 tsp butter, softened
- 1/2 cup half-and-half
- 1½ cup heavy cream, divided
- 1/3 cup erythritol-based granulated sweetener, such as Swerve
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 3/4 tsp xanthan gum
- sea salt
- 4 large eggs
- 3/4 cup almond flour
- 1 cup fresh blueberries
- 3 tbsp erythritol-based powdered sweetener, divided (we used Swerve)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease the baking dish with the butter, then place it on a rimmed baking sheet.
- In a blender, combine the half-and-half, 3/4 cup of the heavy cream, the granulated sweetener, vanilla extract, xanthan gum, 3/4 teaspoon salt, and the eggs. Blend for 10 seconds. Add the almond flour and blend until smooth, about 30 seconds more. Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish.
- Scatter the blueberries evenly over the top of the batter, then bake until the top is golden brown and set and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 40 to 45 minutes. Let rest for 15 minutes
- Meanwhile, in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, add the remaining 3/4 cup heavy cream and 1 1/2 tablespoons of the powdered sweetener. Whip on medium-high speed until soft fluffy peaks form.
- Dust the remaining 1½ tablespoons of powdered sweetener over the top of the clafoutis and serve warm or at room temperature with whipped cream.

Is it custard? Is it cake? It’s kind of like a custard cake–creamy and velvety and sooo good. Plus it’s easy to make. I like eating this for breakfast.
My husband from France really enjoyed it! He said he prefers it with summer cherries. I used raspberries and it was delicious!
I made this it was delicious. I forgot to read the ending when it says let it set for 15 mins. I kept putting it back in the oven as it looked very runny in the middle. Luckily, it tasted good, and it was eaten by family members and myself.
