Reviews
Why does this have cottage cheese? I’ve never seen or made a clafoutis with cottage cheese. It sounds weird.
Great ade with
Not sure about this. Not very sweet and I don’t think the cottage cheese works. I could definitely pick out the taste of it. Nice texture. I don’t think I would make it again.
Used crepe fraiche ( a lighter sour cream) instead of cottage cheese. Added 1/4 tsp vanilla and almond extract. Quite good
Made this last night followed the recipe exactly except used a 10-1/2″ quiche dish.
It looked very impressive, was easy to make and tasted great. I will be doing this one again for sure.
Thank you Food Network
Made it with cherries and apricots and substituted Greek yogurt for the cottage cheese.
This was really good. First time trying this recipe and was definitely a winner. Love the eggy custard like base. I am sure that this will work with pears, plums, raspberries, well pretty much any fruit.
So easy and taste like you spend all day making Yum
Outstanding!
