Ingredients

• 1 ½ cups rhubarb, chopped into small pieces

• ⅓ cup granulated sugar

• 3 large eggs

• ½ cup buttermilk

• ½ cup whole milk

• ½ cup all-purpose flour

• ¼ cup honey or maple syrup

• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

• ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon

• ¼ teaspoon salt

• Butter (for greasing)

• Powdered sugar (for dusting, optional)

Directions

• Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9-inch baking dish or cast-iron skillet with butter.
• Toss the rhubarb with 1 tablespoon of sugar and let it sit for 10 minutes to release juices.
• In a mixing bowl, whisk together eggs, buttermilk, milk, honey (or maple syrup), vanilla extract, cinnamon, and salt.
• Gradually add flour, whisking continuously until the batter is smooth and lump-free.
• Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and evenly distribute the rhubarb on top.
• Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the clafoutis is set and lightly golden on top.
• Let it cool for 10 minutes before dusting with powdered sugar, if desired.
• Serve warm or chilled, with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

Notes

• For extra caramelization, roast the rhubarb with sugar before adding it to the batter.
• The clafoutis will puff up during baking but settle as it cools—this is normal.
