HOW TO MAKE RASPBERRY AND BLACKBERRY CLAFOUTIS
Ingredients
- 200g (7oz) raspberries
- 600g (1lb 5oz) ripe blackberries (cleaned weight)
- 8 medium eggs
- 300g (10oz) caster sugar
- 150g (5oz) plain flour
- 200g (7oz) unsalted butter, softened
- ½tsp baking powder
you will need
- 30x25x5cm deep (12x10x2in) baking tin, greased with a little butter
Method
- Heat the oven to 200 C, 180 C fan oven, 400F, gas 6.
- After hulling the berries, briefly wash them. You can either mix the sponge ingredients in a bowl or, alternatively, in a food processor, which would take you half the time. Beat the eggs first, then stir in the sugar, flour and butter. Mix well, then thoroughly beat in the baking powder.
- Pour the mixture into the prepared tin, then add the blackberries, followed by the raspberries. Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes or until the centre of the cake is solid and not runny.
- Serve warm or cold, sprinkled with extra sugar.
