Ingredients

Clafoutis

1 1/2 cup of fresh blueberries
1 cup of all-purpose flour
6 eggs
1 1/2 cup of maple syrup
1 Meyer lemon zest
1 cup of milk

Citrus salad

1 grapefruit, in pieces
2 oranges, in pieces
3 tablespoons of maple syrup
1/4 cup of fresh mint, chopped

Steps

Preheat the oven to 350°F and place the rack at the center of it. Grease and sprinkle flour over a 9″ pie dish. Pour the blueberries at the bottom of the dish then set aside.
Add the flour to a bowl and dig a small hole at the center of it. Add the eggs, maple syrup, lemon zest and milk then whisk until smooth. Pour atop the blueberries.
Bake for 50 minutes and set aside for 10 minutes afterwards.
While the cake cools, combine all the citrus salad ingredients in a bowl then serve with the clafoutis.
