Recipe's Ingredients

  Quantities for people → Recalculate
  • 1 vanilla bean
  • 2 small pears
  • 2 extra-large egg yolks
  • zest from 1/2 lime
  • turbinado sugar for coating tops
  • 25 g granulated sugar
  • 10 g cornstarch
  • 160 ml heavy cream

  • Recipe preparation steps

  • 1
    Place half the cream in a small saucepan along with the vanilla bean. Carefully bring the cream to a simmer. Set the saucepan aside to steep for 15 minutes.
  • 2
    Preheat oven to 120°C.
  • 3
    Cut the pear halves lengthwise into 2-mm thick slices. Be careful to maintain the pear slices in their original order. Place each pair of halves in a mini-quiche dish so that the narrow ends of the halves point in opposite directions. Carefully spread out the slices so they cover the bottom of the dishes. Set the dishes aside.
  • 4
    Whisk the yolks together with the sugar until light in color. Mix the remaining cream with the cornstarch and add to the yolk mixture. Remove the vanilla bean from the hot cream and discard. Whisk the hot cream into the liquid. Finally, whisk in the lime zest.
  • 5
    Divide the custard mixture over the pears in the quiche dishes. Bake the custards until cooked all the way through, about 1 hour. Remove from the oven and set aside to cool.
  • 6
    If you want, preheat a broiler. Sprinkle a heavy layer of turbinado sugar over the tops of the clafoutis and caramelize the sugar under the broiler.
  • Ready !
