Clafoutis with grapefruit

6 servings

60 minutes

Grapefruit clafoutis is an elegant and refreshing take on the classic French dessert. Originating from Limousin, traditional clafoutis is made with cherries, but its variations allow for a variety of flavors. In this recipe, the sweetness and velvetiness of the batter combine with the bitterness of red grapefruit, creating an exquisite contrast. Baked in a soft creamy batter, the citrus slices become tender and juicy, while the caramelized honey-cognac sauce adds depth and a warming note. This dessert is perfect both warm and chilled—it pairs wonderfully with a cup of black tea or a glass of champagne. The ease of preparation makes clafoutis an excellent choice for a special dinner or a cozy family evening.
