bistrogerard: My sister actually made this clafoutis with frozen cherries, which turned out quite well for her, so the good news is you don’t have to wait until next season! You can also substitute for other fruit, such as peaches, plums, and pears.

Thanks, Gina & Torviewtoronto!

fooddreamer: If you have smaller kids, I’d stick with pitted cherries, just to be safe I just read your post/plea on basil ice cream and I totally know how you feel! Our basil plant is still growing strong too =) I’ve been muddling the leaves with a little bit of sugar to make basil fruit spritzers with sparkling water. I’ve been using raspberries, but I suspect it’d go well with peaches and plums, too =)
