A French classic: Clafoutis from the Big Green Egg

Looking for a tasty and easy-to-make dessert for the Big Green Egg? Check out this delicious recipe for clafoutis – a French classic that is even more delicious when baked on your kamado. This recipe has a surprising twist. Traditionally, clafoutis is made with cherries, but in this recipe, we use juicy raspberries. Crazy about clafoutis? Then try making it one time with cherries, peaches, apples, plums or berries.

INGREDIENTS

Base

  • 150 g flour, plus extra for dusting
  • ½ lemon
  • 100 g butter at room temperature, plus extra to grease
  • 50 g white caster sugar
  • 25 g egg
  • 1 g fine salt

Filling

  • 75 g flour
  • 75 g granulated sugar
  • 240 g whole milk
  • 150 g egg
  • 300 g raspberries

Serve with

  • Icing sugar, for dusting

IN ADVANCE

  1. For the base, sieve the flour twice. Finely grate the zest of the lemon half (you don’t need the juice for this recipe). Knead the butter together with the caster sugar. Mix in the lemon zest, egg and salt and knead in the flour to form a smooth dough.
  2. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and put it in the fridge for about 1 hour.

METHOD

  1. Light the charcoal in the Big Green Egg and heat to 180°C using the heat shield and stainless steel grid.
  2. Meanwhile, grease the skillet (Ø26 cm) with butter and dust with flour. Pat out the excess flour.
  3. Roll out the dough on a floured worktop until it is almost big enough to line the bottom of the skillet. Place the dough in the skillet and press it down with your fingers so that the bottom and edge of the skillet are completely covered.
  4. For the filling, sieve the flour twice. Beat the eggs in a bowl and whisk in the granulated sugar. Gradually stir in the milk and finally the flour to make a smooth batter.
  5. Pour the batter into the skillet and distribute the raspberries on top. Place the skillet on the grid, close the lid of the EGG and bake the clafoutis for about 45 minutes until cooked and golden brown.
  6. Remove the clafoutis from your Big Green Egg and let cool to lukewarm.
  7. Dust with icing sugar and cut into slices.
