Ingredients
  

  • 1 1/4 cups whole milk
  • 1/2 cup white sugar
  • 3 eggs
  • 1 1/2 tbsp Amaretto
  • 1/8 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup flour
  • 15 whole figs cut in half
  • 1 cup slivered almonds
  • 6 tbsp sugar
  • butter for greasing pans

Instructions
 

  • Generously butter your ramekins or mini skillets. Can be made as 1 large dessert by buttering an 8-cup baking dish.
  • Preheat oven to 350'F
  • In a blender, combine milk, sugar, eggs, Amaretto, flour, and salt and blend
  • Pour 1/2 of the mixture into your prepared baking dish and set remaining mixture aside
  • Bake for 8 minutes if using small dishes or 10 minutes if using the larger dish until just slightly set but not baked through.
  • Leave oven on, but remove the clafoutis
  • Place figs cut side down on top of the partially baked custard
  • Pour remaining batter over the figs and return to the oven.
  • Bake for 25-30 additional minutes (30-40 if using larger baking dish) until the clafouti is puffed and golden brown and a knife inserted in the center comes out clean.
  • Sprinkle with candied almonds and serve warm

For Candied Almonds

  • Add almonds and sugar to a heavy pan (I use my cast iron skillet and it's perfect) and heat over medium heat, stirring constantly until sugar melts and caramelizes.
  • Remove from skillet and place on parchment paper for at least one hour...separating large clumps.
