@Sherry Or sub amaretto for the kirsch.

In the traditional French clafoutis you do not pit the cherries

If you've spent time in the US cherry capitals (Wisconsin, Michigan), you know there's nothing like a little almond with cherries. Add a teaspoon of almond extract to batter!

Definitely don’t pit them!

For me, the sweetness overcame all the other flavors. Next time I’ll likely substitute almond extract for the kirsch and double the vanilla. Baked it in a cast iron pan and that worked very well.

This didn’t work for me. Very stodgy and dense. I thought it would be a little lighter or puffy. Much preferred the buttermilk cobbler recipe.
