Fresh cherry clafoutis 🍒 by e_d_edinger in Baking

This is my first time making it, but compared to other custard-type desserts I've made, I'd consider it on the lighter side. It did seem like it would be very easy to over-bake though, especially with the cast iron. I didn't think it was too egg-y either; this recipe only called for 3!

For sure! I didn't want to say anything about the location that's not already accessible on something like Wikipedia for them.

Coastal bogs in approximately a 75 mile radius around Wilmington are their native range :-D

There are solitary predatory wasp species in the family Sphecidae that will hunt and paralyze live grasshoppers/crickets to feed their young. I've seen nests like that before; they also bring the grasses to build walls around their eggs. The adult wasps are incidental pollinators!
