Have you ever had a clafoutis (pronounced clah-foo-tea)? I hadn't either, until today. Clafoutis is a French dessert that is the beautiful love child of a cake and a custard. It is light, fluffy and moist and is the perfect little nestling place for sweet summer fruit. I like it, very much. This recipe is based on Pear Clafoutis by Ina Garten, but is a much lighter version. It combines all my favorite flavors of summer: peach, raspberry, cherry and orange!
