Sweet Dark Cherry Clafouti

This sweet dark cherry clafouti is such a fabulous dessert. It is baked in a pie dish but the best way to explain the taste is to say it’s a cross between a soufflé and bread pudding. It tastes like a dessert you would be served in a fancy restaurant. This is certainly one to wow your company with!
