• 3 Ripe pears (e.g., Williams Christ)
• 3 Large eggs
• 100g Granulated sugar
• 1 Päckchen Vanilla sugar

1. Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F). Grease an ovenproof dish (approx. 24 cm diameter) with a little butter.
2. Peel, core, and slice the pears into approximately 1 cm thick wedges. Arrange the pear slices evenly in the prepared dish.
3. In a large bowl, whisk eggs with granulated sugar and vanilla sugar until frothy.
4. Stir in flour and salt until no lumps remain. Then gradually add the milk and melted butter, mixing everything into a smooth batter. Optionally, add the Calvados.
5. Pour the batter over the pears in the dish.
6. Bake in the preheated oven for approximately 35-40 minutes, until the clafoutis is golden brown and feels firm in the center.
7. Remove from the oven, let cool slightly, and dust with confectioners' sugar before serving. Serve warm.
