This cherry tomato and goat cheese clafoutis is creamy, savory, and surprisingly easy to make. Juicy roasted tomatoes, tangy goat cheese, and fresh herbs are baked in a light, custardy batter until golden.
Serve it warm for brunch, a light dinner, or an easy weekend lunch. It is also delicious at room temperature, making it a great make-ahead dish for sharing.
Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F). Lightly grease a baking dish with olive oil. Halve the cherry tomatoes and arrange them evenly in the dish.
Whisk the eggs, milk, cream, flour, thyme, salt, and black pepper until smooth. Pour the batter evenly over the tomatoes.
Crumble the goat cheese over the top. Bake for 35 to 40 minutes, or until the center is just set and the edges are lightly golden.
Let the clafoutis rest for about 10 minutes before adding fresh basil or parsley.
Serve this savory clafoutis warm or at room temperature with a simple green salad. It works beautifully for brunch, lunch, a light dinner, or as a colorful side dish.
For the best texture, remove the clafoutis from the oven when the center is set but still tender. This keeps the filling creamy while the cherry tomatoes stay juicy.
