Ingredients

Main Ingredients

1/2 cup all-purpose flour sifted
1/3 cup sugar
1 pinch salt
3 large eggs room temperature
1 1/4 cups whole milk room temperature
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 cup unsalted butter melted
3 medium ripe pears peeled, cored, and sliced
1/3 cup sliced almonds toasted

Honey Lavender Drizzle

1/4 cup honey
1 teaspoon dried lavender crushed
2 tablespoons water

Instructions

1 Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and butter a 9-inch pie dish.
2 In a large bowl, whisk together the sifted flour, sugar, and salt.
3 Add the eggs one at a time, whisking until smooth, then gradually add the milk and vanilla extract, stirring until well combined.
4 Stir in the melted butter until fully incorporated into the batter.
5 Arrange the pear slices in the prepared pie dish and pour the batter over the pears.
6 Sprinkle the toasted almonds evenly on top.
7 Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the clafoutis is puffed and golden brown.
8 While the clafoutis bakes, prepare the honey lavender drizzle by combining honey, crushed lavender, and water in a small saucepan over low heat. Stir until well blended, then remove from heat and set aside to cool slightly.
9 Once baked, remove the clafoutis from the oven and let it cool for 10 minutes before drizzling with the honey lavender mixture.
10 Slice and serve warm, with an extra drizzle of honey lavender sauce, if desired.
