Fruits by Victor Hugo's recipe is an exquisite dessert inspired by French cuisine, where the simplicity of ingredients meets refined flavor. The combination of tender apples and pears baked in caramel sweetness is topped with an airy, creamy mixture of milk, flour, and eggs. The vanilla aroma and light crispy crust give this dish a special charm. Serving it with fresh cream or milk makes it even more delicate. Such a dessert can easily be imagined on the table of a writer immersed in thoughts about life and literature. It is perfect for both a cozy family evening and a formal dinner, delighting guests with its aroma and texture.
