Fruit. Stir Until Each Piece Has Softened And IsCoated With butter, About 2-3 Minutes. Then SprinkleIn sugar to Sweeten. we Use About 2 t of GranulatedSugar For All Fruit Except cranberries (which RequireAbout Twice as Much) And peaches (where we Prefer

brown sugar). When This sugar Has Dissolved And TurnedInto a Syrup—About 2 Minutes—Stir up The Batter AndScrape it Carefully Into The Pan Over The Fruit. PutThe Skillet Into The Oven to Bake For About 20

Minutes. at This Point The Clafoutis Will be Set,Golden Brown, And Puffed up at The Edges. Divide IntoWarmed Bowls, Sift a Little Confectioners' sugar OverEach, And Top if You Like With a Spoonful of Sour
