I don’t know why, but every year when the cherry season comes, the first thing I can think of is Cherry Clafoutis. This recipe is one you don’t want to miss this summer!

Have you tried it before?

If you haven’t its a custardy type of dessert. And super easy to make!

Cherry Clafoutis on a round wooden board, lying on top of a brown paper. Fresh cherries scattered around. And a bowl or fresh cherries on the side.

Traditionally it’s made with the cherry pits left in, due to the flavor they add to the cake. In this recipe, I also left the pits inside the cherries. It doesn’t only saves you time, but it also adds that layer of flavor.

If you prefer to take them out, you can add few drops of almond extract.

But, if you do decide to leave the pits inside, don’t forget to let everyone know before you share. Especially kids!

Now, in therms of making the Cherry Clafoutis, it can’t be any easier!

You can mix everything by hand or you can use a blender. Either way works.

Ingredients are pretty simple, nothing unusual or hard to find. Of course, the best time to make this is during a cherry season. I haven’t tried using frozen cherries, so I’m not sure how will it turn out. But, if I try I will update you on that.

The main ingredients for this recipe are :

Cherries (obviously) & Shaved Almonds

Eggs & Flour

Sugar & Milk

Touch of salt and drizzle of vanilla extract

In a blender or a bowl, combine all the ingredients, except the cherries and almonds. Mixing till smooth consistency. Butter an 8-inch baking dish, add the cherries and pure over the batter. On top, I add the shaved almonds.

That’s it! Bake. Cool. And eat.

You can make this last minute, if you are running out of time, or have unexpected guests. You’ll definitely impress everyone!

It’s not overly sweet, and the texture is so light and delicate. Not your typical heavy dessert.

The great thing about it is, you can bake it the night before and it will be perfect the next day. Can be stored in the fridge and it tastes delicious cold.

Would you like more summer dessert ideas, check this Hibiscus Panna Cotta recipe, it’s one of my favorite too.

If you would like to share your thoughts about this dessert let me know in the comments below. You can also find me on Instagram and Facebook. Or if you like to hang out on Pinterest, I’m there too. Would love to hear from you!

Happy baking!

Just taking a minute to say hi and tease you with Just taking a minute to say hi and tease you with a little bit of sweet goodness!

Today my cat run away from home😥. And I'm not sure if he'll comeback. He actually jumped from the balcony as he got scared from the vacuum. I hope he didn't hurt himself. I know cats usually remember their home, but I don't know if he'll survive out there. Cross fingers he does.🤞🏻

Hope your week is going well so far, but if you want to make it even better, I promise you these Eclairs will do just that! 

You can find the recipe at www.crumblesofhealth.com or just go to my profile and the link will take you there.

Talk soon.

Here is another look of the cupcakes I posted yest Here is another look of the cupcakes I posted yesterday. Very different, isn't it? 
No props, just the main subject. Playing with color, shadows and composition. 
The cupcakes already have a lot of different texture and layers, by using the simple background balances the overall look.

What do you think? 
Storytelling, rustic, homey feel or the modern, simple, and bold. I like both styles. 

This is something I like to do often. Use the same object but showcase it in different ways. For me shooting the same style all the time is boring. I can't grow as a photographer if I shoot at the same place and the same way every time. I like to change it up sometimes and get uncomfortable. 
If you like this challenge and want to give it a try use the #crumblethestyle. I would love to see what you come up with. And it's a nice way to push yourself and get outside your comfort zone. 

Hope you had a nice Easter weekend and enjoyed delicious food.

Today the wifi went down and at first was frustrat Today the wifi went down and at first was frustrating because I couldn't get done the things I wanted to do. 
But then I ended up cleaning the house, making a really good cookie recipe and shooting the rest of the time. So it wasn't that bad, after all. I was very productive actually. 
Disconnecting from the web is a good thing, it forces you to connect with your surroundings more. 
But I also realized how dependant I am to the web. It's crazy to think that I can't spend a day without it. Its one thing to take a break from SM, and I have no problem doing that. But from the whole web! It's definitely something I don't do very often.
 
How about you? Do you disconnect from the digital world often?

New recipe went up on the blog over the weekend!! New recipe went up on the blog over the weekend!! This Cardamom Golden Raisin Scones! I love this flavor combination, cardamom and golden raising just go together so well. 
Who else likes cardamom? I think it has very unique and distinctive taste. Adding too much of it can overwhelm a dish, so need to be careful with that. But the right amount will make it so tasty!! 

What do you think 👍or 👎for cardamom? And why?

I hope you like is as much as I do, and go make this scone recipe. Its easy and delicious!!
