Cooking options

• Klafuti is tastier if milk is mixed with heavy cream. If the fat content is 30-33 percent, then the ratio of milk to cream should be 2: 1. If you do not have cream, then add a piece of melted butter to the milk. The fatter - the tastier.
• If you grease the bottom and sides of the form with butter, and sprinkle them with a mixture of flour and sugar, then the crust will be more appetizing.
• You can bake in large form with a diameter of 22-26 cm, and can be distributed on 4-6 tins with a diameter of 10-12 cm.
• Clafuti made from fresh, ripe, juicy pitted cherries is considered classic, but in winter it can be prepared from canned pitted cherries.
• If you decide to cook a cherry pie with a stone, then in order to reveal the taste of berries, you need to melt 1 tbsp in a pan. l butter, put cherries there, sprinkle with sugar. Keep over low heat until sugar dissolves. Put the cherries in the form, and add the resulting syrup to the dough.
• Eating Klafuti with seedless berries is much nicer than with seeds. So you can not be afraid for the preservation of teeth. And to give the cake a cherry-stone aroma, add a little almond essence or cherry tincture.
