Maybe even better than pie.
The only possible pitfall: Sometimes, clafouti comes out tough and chewy pastry. To avoid that, rest the batter for at least 30 minutes or, ideally, overnight. This lets the protein in the flour chill out and relax. Don't worry—you get to relax when the clafouti is baked.
While the batter rests, prepare the pan and fruit. Traditionally, the pan is buttered and floured, but I like to butter and sugar it, creating a pretty, crystal-like appearance on the outer shell. Clafouti can be baked in any sort of baking dish or pan—fluted baking dishes are classic, but in a pinch a cast iron or even non-stick skillet will do just fine.
A note about the French: They use cherries, and they leave them whole. But you? You can totally pit yours.
