Aldi super 6 glut of cherries and plums - scrummy recipe ideas please, other than crumble or jam!

[dandycandyjellybean]

Never really used fresh cherries for anything other than eating coz they usually so expensive, and usually do jam or crumble with plums.......anyone else get Super 6 gluts, or am I the only one who can't seem to help myself when stuff is so cheap?

I made a cobbler with the plums at the weekend. It tasted poo So ill be watching with interest!!

Cherry clafoutis ?

is a cobbler the one a bit like a crumble but with scone topping? somehow I've never fancied clafoutis, it feels a bit like yorkie pudding with fruit iyswim? thanks for the input tho.

I have never had a clafoutis actually just seen it in various recipe books - sorry .

Easy cherry clafoutis (from letscookfrench.com)

They translate it as baked custard.

Ingredients (serves 4 à 6 people):

• 400 g ripe black cherries
• 2 eggs
• 80 g caster sugar
• 80 g flour
• 20 cl milk
• salt

Directions:

Wash and stone the cherries. Spread them with half of the sugar and lay the cherries on a single layer in a cake pan buttered.

In a bowl, combine the flour, a pinch of salt and the remaining sugar. Add the eggs, whisk, then mix with the milk incorporated little by little.
Pour the batter on the cherries and bake for 35 mn in the oven at 390°F.
