TUTTI FRUTTI CLAFOUTI

OH YUM…yes this was worth every calorie and so quick and homey on a cold winter night at our house. I had to fend the kids off with a camera bag to get the photo before they devoured it and unfortunately for my waist line (and seemingly shrinking jeans) I had another helping! YIKES this Thermomix has a lot to answer for…so here goes, an easy winters dessert. I used bottled sour cherries, as fresh ones are in short supply, but fresh would work beautifully in the summer time.

NEED:
220 grams sugar (make into icing sugar in TM)
110 grams unsalted butter melted
3 large eggs
1 tablespoon vanilla essence
750 ml jar pitted sour cherries, drained
250 grams Greek style plain yoghurt
200 grams SR flour

DO:
Prepare deep pie dish by spraying with cooking oil.
Preheat oven to 190 degrees celcius.
Process sugar into icing sugar and set aside.
Insert butterfly attachment into Thermomix bowl.
Beat all eggs and vanilla until pale and fluffy.
Add add dry ingredients and yoghurt.
Beat on Speed 3 until blended.
Through top with blade turning, add melted butter in a drizzle.
Beat mix until light and fluffy, (about 30 seconds).
Pour batter into prepared pie plate.
Gently place cherries on top of batter.
Cook for approximately 30 minutes then turn heat down to 150.
Cook a further 30 minutes.

SERVE:
Dust with icing sugar and serve whilst warm with (you guessed it!!) a dollop of fresh whipped cream!
