For a richer flavor, use half-and-half or heavy cream instead of milk. A splash of Calvados or apple brandy added to the apple mixture enhances the apple flavor. Feel free to experiment with other fruits, such as pears, berries, or cherries. If the top is browning too quickly, tent the skillet with foil during the last 10-15 minutes of baking. Serve warm or at room temperature. It's delicious either way! Make sure the apples are not too tart.

01 Step
Recipe View Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). (5 minutes)
02 Step
Recipe View Make the custard: In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs and 0.5 cup of the brown sugar until smooth. Whisk in the flour and salt until well combined. Gradually add the milk, stirring constantly until the mixture is smooth. Stir in the vanilla extract and set aside. (10 minutes)
03 Step
Recipe View Prepare the apples: In a 10 1/4-inch cast iron skillet (or any oven-proof skillet), melt the butter over medium-high heat. Add the remaining 0.33 cup of brown sugar and the water. Stir frequently until the mixture begins to boil. Reduce heat to medium; swirl the skillet (do not stir) until the mixture starts to thicken, about 2 minutes. (5 minutes)
04 Step
Recipe View Add the apples and cinnamon to the skillet. Cook and stir until the apples are crisp-tender and starting to brown, 15 to 18 minutes. Remove from heat. (20 minutes)
05 Step
Recipe View Stir the custard and pour it evenly over the apples in the skillet. (2 minutes)
06 Step
Recipe View Bake in the preheated oven until the edges are golden brown and the custard is set, 28 to 35 minutes. A knife inserted near the center should come out mostly clean. (35 minutes)
07 Step
Recipe View Let cool slightly before dusting with powdered sugar (if using) and serving. The clafoutis will deflate as it cools, which is normal.
