Clafoutis is a traditional French dessert made with fresh fruit and a simple custardy batter. The fruit is traditionally cherries but raspberries can be substituted for a sweet and tart variation. This dish is perfect for breakfast, dessert, or a quick snack. Clafoutis originated in the Limousin region of France and is commonly served during the summer months when fruit is abundant. This dish is easy to make and can be adapted to use any seasonal fruit.

4.Sprinkle the raspberries over the batter, making sure they are evenly distributed. Bake in the preheated oven until the edges are golden brown and the center is set, about 30 minutes.
