Pamela Anderson's Stone Fruit Clafoutis

To make Stone Fruit Clafoutis, you can use any stone fruit — apricots, mangoes, nectarines, etc. — but this recipe calls for one pound of cherries or six small ripe plums. Ditte

I threw this recipe in because I make it so often. It’s an elegant but simple dessert I fell in love with in France. My home, British Columbia, is a stone fruit clafoutis. And the custardy,

creamy texture is luxurious and decadent. There’s always a time and a place to indulge. — Pam Anderson

Makes 1 (9-inch) clafoutis

Anderson shared three recipes from I Love You with AARP members:

Buddha Bowls with Crispy Sesame Tofu

This hearty, flavorful bowl is packed with plant-based protein.

Crispy Saffron-Spinach Rice Cake

Crunchy texture and vibrant flavors make this a worthy main course or side dish.

Stone Fruit Clafoutis

This dessert looks like a work of art and takes less than 10 minutes to put together (plus baking time).

Ingredients

vegetable oil, plus more for the pan1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract¼ teaspoon fine sea saltTiny pinch of ground turmeric½ cup unbleached organic all-purpose flour2 tablespoons chickpea

flour3 sprigs lemon thymePowdered sugar, for dusting

Directions

Preheat the oven to 400°F. Oil a 9-inch cast-iron skillet or pie dish.

In a blender, combine the tofu, cornstarch, granulated sugar, plant milk, oil, vanilla, salt, and turmeric. Blend on high until smooth. Add the all-purpose and chickpea flours and blend

again to incorporate. Pour the batter into the prepared pan. Nestle the cherries or plum halves into the batter by pressing down on them gently with your fingertips. I like some to face

cut-side up and others to face down. Scatter the lemon thyme on top. Bake until golden brown and set, about 50 minutes.

Let the clafoutis cool for 10 minutes or so, then dust with powdered sugar and serve warm.
