Clafoutis with Cocoa and Cherries

I drank about 2 liters of thai tea today. I have a tasty recipe, but unfortunately it did not want

I drank about 2 liters of thai tea today. I have a tasty recipe, but unfortunately it did not want to look good on pictures. As 2 litres is enough for a day, I’ll try tomorrow again. 

Today was a day full of excitement. I met with Jessica from Best wishes from Berlin Magazine and we had a lovely chat. If everything goes as planed, my story will be listed there tomorrow as well. So if you’d like to know a little bit more about me, that’s a place to look 🙂 The hardest part was me being photographed. I love to take pictures of people, I covered quite a few weddings, lifestyle sessions and portraits. But when I’m on another side of the lense, I can not get rid of a very specific and not very natural smile, hahaha. You’ll see by yourself. 

To relax before the meeting I made a sweet breakfast from a recipe listed on What Katie Ate blog (you know it, don’t you). Sweet breakfast is always a good choice, when you want to concentrate on something else yet delicious.

  • 3 eggs
  • ½ cup whole grain flour
  • ¼ cup dark  cocoa powder
  • ½ cup sugar
  • 1 & ¼ cup of milk
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • lemon zest from 1 lemon
  • pinch of salt
  • cherries

Heat your oven to 180*C. Place all the ingredients except for cherries in a bowl and mix, until everything will be nicely combined. Grease a skillet or a baking form with a butter and place pitted cherries on a bottom. Carefully pour your mixture over it and bake for about an hour.

Enjoy, Marta

  • Kiersten @ Oh My Veggies Reply

    I love Thai tea. 🙂 And clafoutis too! This looks so rich and chocolatey–yum! I feel the same way about being photographed. I can never smile naturally and I just feel so self-conscious. :/

  • kitchenriffs Reply

    I really dislike being photographed too. I’ll definitely take a look at the article – congrats on that! And congrats on a terrific recipe. I don’t believe I’ve ever had a clafoutis with cocoa – great idea. Thanks.
