When I found this recipe, I instantly knew I wanted to make it - it sounds delicious! However, I was disappointed - the clafouti base is quite thick, it needed to be more runnier, and possibly a bit sweeter too. I also only used 1 pear, as if I used 2, it would be a really thick layer. The glaze made probably twice as much as needed, but is definitely the best part about the dish. 3 stars because it has serious potential.
