Pear Clafoutis

Can you say, “clafoutis?” I think my older son loves to make this dish with me, just so he can say that word over and over again.
While I make the batter, he peels the pears, slices them and then takes the peeler and carefully extracts any remaining seeds from the slices. So much love, care and respect for the food he prepares. All the while happily chanting, “clafoutis! clafoutis! clafoutis!” Here it is.

¼ cup agave nectar
½ cup heavy cream
½ cup salted butter, melted
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/3 cup blanched almond flour
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon

This looks so gorgeous (as usual). I just made a clafouti and wanted to see what else was out there. I used almond flour too and it gave the clafouti a great flavor.
