Sous Vide Blueberry Clafoutis

This recipe is bursting with blueberry, though not overly sweet, and has an almost unnameable texture as a true clafoutis should! Flan-like with a touch of bread pudding feel, this still-fluffy flourless dessert is best served warm and would marry well with freshly made creme anglaise. Feel free to substitute other kinds of berries or cherries in this classic French dessert. So delicious!

Prep Time: 00:05

Recipe Time: 01:00

Temperature : 185F / 85C

Ingredients

• 1 egg
• 1/4 c/60 ml heavy cream
• 1/4 c/40g almond flour
• 1 Tablespoon/12g granulated sugar/granulated sugar substitute
• 2 teaspoons coconut flour
• 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
• pinch salt
• 1/2 c fresh blueberries/alternative
• Extra equipment: 4 4 oz/125 ml screw-top or hinge-closure canning jars

Directions

1. Set your Anova Precision Cooker to 185ºF/85ºC
2. Combine all ingredients apart from blueberries in a small mixing bowl and whisk until smooth
3. Set up your jars on a work surface and grease with cooking spray or extra oil. Divide the batter evenly among the 4 jars. Top each with 2 Tablespoons of blueberries
4. Attach the lids to "fingertip tightness" - slightly loose, what you can achieve by closing the jars with just your fingertips. This will allow the air pressure inside the jars to escape while cooking, ensuring that they do not shatter in the bath
5. Place the jars into the bath and set the timer for 1 hour

Finishing Steps

1. Remove the jars from the bath and enjoy warm with a little extra sprinkle of sugar, sugar substitute, or creme anglaise!
