Sweet Eve Strawberry & Blackberry Clafoutis Monique Sweet Eve Strawberry & Blackberry Clafoutis Monique Alex says “This is named after my French godmother – Monique – who makes a perfect baked Clafoutis. I love the way you can see the whole berries nestling in the buttery cake mixture. Served with crème fraiche, this is divine.” Serves: 6 Preparation time: 15 minutes Cooking time: 35 minutes You’ll need a little butter for greasing 150g Sweet Eve strawberries, halved 150g blackberries 1 tbsp brandy 60g plain flour 1\2 level tsp baking powder 100g caster sugar pinch salt 3 large free range eggs 1\2 tsp vanilla extract 250ml single cream icing sugar for dusting What to do Preheat the oven to 180c and grease a baking dish.
