KETO CLAFOUTIS RECIPE | Quick & Easy Cherry Clafoutis | Low Carb Tasty Dessert
Here’s a spin on a French classic – Clafoutis. Instead of using all purpose flour, use almond flour. It doesn’t have as much body, but the flavor is AMAZING!
The blend of almond flour and cherries is well balanced. I also switched out the sugar with 100% erythritol to lower the amount of carbs. Honestly, it tastes better with sugar but if you are really watching your carb intake, it’s pretty good.
WHY IS THIS CLAFOUTIS SO FLAT? Normally clafoutis is a fair amount thicker than what you are seeing in this video. That’s because both sugar and AP flour act as a lovely lattice that gives support and structure to desserts, resulting in thick fluffy desserts.
My goal with this Keto Clafoutis was to make a tasty dessert with a few carbs as possible. Something had to get sacrificed! Height and fluffiness got kicked to the curb. Sad, but true.
Fortunately though, this tastes way better than it looks. If you are tired of eating FAT BOMBS but are craving something SWEET that has nearly 0 Carbs and is truly satisfying, make this keto clafoutis.
Keeping it keto today! This is a custard like (a bit like flan, but just a bit) dessert that’s a spin on the classic French clafoutis. It’s made with cherries but you can use any fruit you like. I’ve seen it made with strawberries, peaches, raspberries, blackberries, fig, plums, and even bananas.
Traditionally clafoutis is made with cherries that have NOT been pitted. Have you ever bit down hard on a cherry and got a rude jolt when you clamped down on the pit??? No fun. That’s why I recommend pitting your cherries with a cherry pitter or grab a can of Bing cherries at the store. No pits = pure bliss!!!
