Cook Time: 50 min	Prep Time: 20 min
Yield: 6 servings

Ingredients:
1/2 cup Sugar
1 cup of Low-fat Milk or Half n' Half
3 Eggs
1 tsp Vanilla extract
1 tsp Almond extract
1/3 cup Flour
1/3 cup Almonds, ground
2-4 Pears, core, peel, and evenly sliced lengthwise about
8-12 slices per pear.
1/2 cup cherries, pitted and halved

Instructions:
1. In a blender combine all ingredients, except the pears and
cherries. Blend very well, scraping the sides of the blender a few
times to get all the flour mixed in.

2. Prepare the pears and arrange on the bottom of the greased
pan in a pinwheel fashion, with the base of the pear sections
toward the outer edge. Add the cherries in the center

3. Slowly pour the egg batter into the pie pan – the pears will
float so nudge them about to keep their pinwheel formation.

4. Bake in the oven until set, puffy and golden about 45-60
minutes. Cut into 6 slices.

Notes:
Clafoutis (claw-foo-tea) are a traditional country French dessert, best described as a cross between a cake and flan. With the addition of ground almonds, I reduced the amount of flour. If you wish for more a cake texture, add 1/3 cup more flour.
