Clafoutis are traditionally made with cherries. The round shallow dish comes from the Limousin region of France. The French term “clafoutis” roughly translates to “a mess” or “crowded” (referring to the way the fruit was originally packed into it before baking). It literally means “flip-flop,” which resembles the way this recipe is made.
