With berries starting to be ready for picking in our back gardens, it is time to try something a little different for dessert.
Clafoutis is a French fruit dessert with few ingredients, is easy to make, and tastes delicious. Make it once, and it will become a regular dish in your home.
If you can make pancake batter, you can make Clafoutis.
