Clafouti

Fun to say, full of good stuff, easy make-ahead breakfast. I discovered clafouti on Nourished & Nurtured breakfast round-up, a fantastic resource.  This recipe is based on her apple or pear clafouti recipe, but use can use any fruit you want. Throw a bag of frozen cherries at the bottom. Go on, you won't regret it!

3 large apples or pears, peeled, cored, and sliced
1/2 C butter (or unrefined coconut oil)
2-3 T honey
4 eggs
1/2 C plain yoghurt, or sour cream
1/2 t cinnamon
1/4 t sea salt
dash nutmeg
1 t vanilla
1/3 C almond flour


Preheat oven to 325 degrees F, butter or spray an 8"x8" glass baking dish or 6 ramekins.

Divide the fruit amongst the ramekins (or spread it out on the bottom of the dish).

In a small saucepan gently melt a stick of butter and stir the honey into it.

Mix together eggs, yoghurt, cinnamon, salt, nutmeg, & vanilla. Pour in the honey butter and stir. Add the almond flour and mix well.

Pour the mixture over the fruit. Bake for 45-55 minutes.

These keep well in the fridge for a few days. Feel free to play with fruit and spice combinations. I prefer cardamon to cinnamon, myself.
