WHAT IS A CLAFOUTIS?

Clafoutis is a baked traditional French dessert that is very simple to make and is elegant to serve to guests any night of the week. It’s a cross between a custard and a flan.

Traditional clafoutis uses regular flour and fresh cherries as the fruit, but other fresh fruit, like fresh raspberries, wild blueberries, fresh blackberries and even peaches would work nicely. 

The flan-like batter is essentially made with eggs and heavy cream and could be enjoyed for breakfast or dessert. It whips up so easily in the blender and then you just pour batter into your shallow dish to bake, you will wonder why you’ve never attempted this fantastic recipe before!

DO YOU EAT CLAFOUTIS COLD? 

You can eat this sugar free clafoutis cold topped with some delicious keto yogurt or sugar free whipped cream and more berries if you like. Typically it is a dessert that is served lukewarm.

You could make this ahead of guests coming over and leave out of the oven on the counter for about 15-20 minutes to cool slightly.

My preference is cold since that’s how I enjoy custard type desserts. This keto clafoutis will firm up a bit once refrigerated. I say serve it the way you want, warm or cold, it’s absolutely delicious either way!

LOW CARB FRUIT OPTIONS FOR CLAFOUTIS

While raspberries are one of the best keto-friendly fruits, you can easily customize this recipe with other low carb fruits:

• Blackberries
• Strawberries (sliced)
• Blueberries (in moderation)
• Chopped peaches (for a slightly higher carb option)

Keeping fruit portions moderate helps maintain the low carb and keto-friendly macros, especially if you’re following a ketogenic or midlife macro approach.

HOW TO MAKE CLAFOUTIS

You can whip this dessert up in no time at all. Just 5 minutes to prep and 25 to bake!

• Start by preheating the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Grease a 9-inch gratin dish or a 10-inch flan dish or ceramic pie dish with butter.
• Add all the batter ingredients to a blender, starting with the wet and blend until smooth. Don’t over blend.
• Scatter fruit, about half  of the raspberries into the pie plate. Pour the batter over the berries and then top with the rest of the berries pressing them into the batter.
• Bake for about 25 minutes until almost set, but the clafoutis has a slight jiggle in the middle. Option to bake for 5 more minutes if you like a firmer, totally set clafoutis. I like mine with a slight softer custard feel in the middle. It also firms up as it cools so try not to over cook.
• Serve with a dusting of powdered sweetener and/or  serve with sugar free whipped cream, Greek yogurt or coconut yogurt.

TIPS FOR THE BEST KETO RASPBERRY CLAFOUTIS

To make sure your sugar free clafoutis turns out perfectly every time, here are a few simple tips:

• Use fresh or frozen raspberries: Fresh raspberries hold their shape best, but frozen can work—just don’t thaw them first or they may release too much moisture.
• Don’t over blend the batter: Over blending can incorporate too much air and affect the custard texture.
• Watch the center: The key to a perfect clafoutis is removing it when the center still has a slight jiggle. It will continue to set as it cools.
• Use a shallow dish: A wide, shallow baking dish helps the custard cook evenly and gives you that classic clafoutis texture.
• Let it rest before serving: Even if you prefer it warm, letting it sit for 10–15 minutes helps it firm up and slice more cleanly.

TOOLS NEEDED TO MAKE KETO CLAFOUTIS

Just two kitchen gadgets needed for this easy comforting keto treat!

1. Ceramic 10 inch pie dish A ceramic custard or flan pie dish or tart pan will hold its heat better than a metal pan. You could also use a glass pie dish or even a cast iron skillet though I have not tested this recipe using either so the baking time might vary. 
2. High powered blender will get the job done well and quickly. 

WHAT IS THE TEXTURE OF A CLAFOUTIS? 

The texture if this sugar free clafoutis is a cross between a custard and a flan. If you refrigerate it rather then eat it lukewarm, it will become firmer and more flan like. If you eat it warm right out of the oven, it will be more custard like.

If you like a soft center, do not over bake and take it out of the oven when the center is still jiggly. If you want a firmer texture, bake an additional 5 minutes and allow to cool then refrigerate for a couple of hours or overnight. 

SWAPS AND SUBSTITUTIONS

This easy keto clafoutis is very versatile and can be adapted based on what you have on hand:

• Dairy-Free Option: Use full-fat canned coconut milk instead of heavy cream and coconut oil instead of butter.
• Nut-Free Option: Swap almond flour for coconut flour (as listed in the recipe), but note coconut flour absorbs more liquid use only 1/4 cup.
• Sweetener Options: Monk fruit allulose blend gives the best texture, but you can use powdered erythritol or allulose alone.
• Flavor Variations: Add almond extract instead of vanilla, or a pinch of cinnamon for a warm flavor twist.

Can I make this ahead of time?

Yes! This clafoutis is perfect for making ahead. Store in the fridge and serve cold or gently reheat.

Why is my clafoutis watery?

Too much moisture from fruit (especially frozen) or underbaking can cause this. Make sure to bake until just set and avoid thawed frozen fruit.

Can I freeze clafoutis?

Freezing is not recommended as it changes the custard texture.

HOW TO STORE CLAFOUTIS

If you do have any left overs, which is highly unlikely, but if you do, you will need to cover the pie pan with parchment or plastic wrap and refrigerate.

It can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. I do not recommend freezing this. You can reheat in a 300 degree F oven until warm.

This delicious, now keto, baked French dessert is a great recipe for curbing your sweet tooth!
