i love clafoutis

so.. after the veggie clafoutis recipe, another clafoutis variation i like quite :D it has a crusty surface, a bit more than usual clafoutis (which recipe i'll manage to post asap, it's been a while since the last time i made my yellow plums clafoutis and i'm looking forward) i made it with a mix of strawberries and peaches because, although i like cherries a lot, i dont like to make chocolate clafoutis with those.
useless to say it came out delicious! i like clafoutis also because it's such an easy recipe to make.. once you get the mixture in the proportions you like the best and the right balance between sweet and fruit, it's almost impossible to make a bad clafoutis ^^


peach strawberry chocolate clafoutis
200g straberries
250g peaches
2eggs
40g cornstarch
40g flour
40g sugar (+2tbsp)
2tsp baking powder
75g dark chocolate
50g butter
50ml milk
lemon juice

clean the fruit and chop it, squeeze some lemon juice on it and set aside.
melt butter and chocolate in a bain marie, let it cool. beat eggs with sugar till fluffy, gradually stir in sifted flour, baking powder and cornstarch. beat in milk and melted chocolate.
place the fruit at the bottom of a greased baking tin, pour the mixture to cover it. bake in preheated oven at 180°C for about 25min. spread some sugar and a bit of butter all over the surface and bake for 10min still
