Ingredients:

Fruit and Pan Preparation:

  • 2 cups cherries, stemmed and pitted
  • 1 cup blueberries
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1 1⁄2 tablespoons erythritol (or another sugar substitute)

Batter:

  • 4 eggs
  • 1⁄2 cup erythritol (or another sugar substitute)
  • 1⁄4 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon almond extract
  • 2 tablespoons butter, melted
  • 3⁄4 cup blanched almond flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1⁄2 cup unsweetened almond milk
  • 1⁄2 cup heavy cream

Garnish:

  • 1 tablespoon powdered erythritol (Sukrin Melis) for dusting

Instructions:

Fruit and Pan Preparation:

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Thoroughly butter a 9-inch pie pan or 10-inch tart pan and dust with erythritol.
  2. Wash and dry the cherries and blueberries. Remove the stems from the cherries and pit them if necessary.
  3. Arrange the prepared fruit in the buttered and dusted pan, ensuring they cover the bottom evenly.

Batter:

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together eggs, erythritol, sea salt, vanilla extract, and almond extract.
  2. Transfer the egg mixture to a blender. Add melted butter, almond flour, baking powder, almond milk, and heavy cream. Blend until smooth and well combined.
  3. Pour the batter evenly over the fruit in the pan, filling nearly to the top. Any leftover batter can be used for smaller ramekins filled with fruit.
  4. Bake for 45 minutes or until the Clafoutis is golden and puffy. A toothpick inserted into the center should come out clean.
  5. Remove from the oven and allow to cool on a wire rack for 20 minutes. The Clafoutis will firm up as it cools.

Garnish and Serve:

  1. Dust the cooled Clafoutis with powdered erythritol (Sukrin Melis).
  2. Slice and serve warm or at room temperature. Optionally, serve with a dollop of whipped cream on the side.
