Diet sweets: the clafoutis
Are you on a diet but don’t want to give up dessert? One of the dietary desserts that I always recommend and make regularly, very simple, is the clafoutis , a French recipe that can be made with different types of fruit (apples, pears, peaches, apricots, cherries, red fruits, plums) and which consists of pouring over the chopped fruit a simple batter with milk, flour, sugar and eggs, which we can further lighten calories with these precautions: use skimmed milk , a little sugar (50-60 grams in all are enough, but it can also be done with a sweetener such as stevia, erythritol, etc.), corn or rice starch instead of flour(in this way we can put much less), a spoonful of rapé coconut flour instead of powdered sugar when the dessert is ready (or a mix of spices).
Among the dietary desserts, clafoutis is a winning choice because it has no oil or butter, apart from a little to oil the pan (but even in this case, you can use parchment paper).
Once the batter is made, we can pour it over the chopped fruit and then bake the clafoutis in the oven.
Here are some light clafoutis recipes for those looking for diet desserts.
– Clafoutis light with raspberries: you can reduce the sugar content and use other red fruits instead of raspberries.
– Strawberry clafoutis: light recipe with stevia and skimmed milk.
– Clafoutis with apples: here too, you can reduce the sugar quota.
– Clafoutis without eggs, with kefir and oats : recipe without eggs, with kefir milk which is a great ingredient for making frothy clafoutis.
Vegan Clafoutis: For vegans, I recommend these tips to have a great fruit clafoutis without cow’s milk or eggs.
– Use rice, almond or coconut milk (such as Alpro)
– Use aquafaba instead of eggs (to be whipped with a spoonful of sugar)
– Use half a banana for a more consistent batter (reducing sugar)
