I have the urge to bake croissants so badly. BUT I got the Lune cookbook for Christmas and I’ve not had a chance to try their recipe yet. It’s a 3 day minimum bake, so I’m making myself hold out a few more months until the PhD is done and I don’t have responsibilities so that I can set aside an entire weekend to do them.

A clafoutis sounds like a delicious idea actually. I could make mini ones and take some in to my nan in respite care.

Clafoutis is one my go tos for an easy impressive dessert. Did up a pineapple one once that was amaaaazing. The basic batter works with any reasonably moist fruit. Except citrus unfortunately which is a bummer at this time of year. Recommend butterscotch sauce with apple though once cooked.
