Did you know that
In the past, clafoutis was made exclusively with cherries. Today this dessert can be prepared with peaches, apricots, plums, apples or anything else.- Prepare the dough. Shell the eggs and beat them with a whisk together with the sugar and a pinch of salt.
- Combine the sifted flour and milk, continuing to mix the ingredients. Flavor with half a glass of limoncello and the zest of an organic lemon.
- Pour the rather liquid mixture over the peach slices. Sprinkle with a pinch of cinnamon. Bake the cake at 180 ° C for 35-40 minutes.

In cooking the clafoutis will swell a lot. Once removed from the oven, the cake will slowly deflate: this is a characteristic of the clafoutis.- Remove the cake from the oven and allow to cool. Cut into slices and serve with a sprinkling of powdered sugar.
