This easy Plum Clafoutis is made with in-season Italian plums baked in a lightly-sweetened, custard-like creamy filling. It's a classic French dessert that looks impressive but comes together in less than 15 minutes. A few tablespoons of butter added to the batter help keep the custard tender and creamy rather than rubbery. The result is a beautifully golden, delicate dessert with jammy, juicy plums in every bite.
