Instructions:
1. Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grab a 9-inch round baking dish and generously grease it with the melted butter.
2. In a small bowl, combine the pitted cherries with cornstarch, ground cinnamon, and nutmeg. Toss them together until the cherries are well coated, then spread them evenly in your prepared baking dish.
3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, whole milk, vanilla extract, granulated sugar, flour, and salt until the mixture is smooth and combined.
4. Pour this rich custard mixture over the cherries in the baking dish, ensuring all the cherries are submerged.
5. Place the baking dish in the oven and bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the clafoutis is puffed up and has a beautiful golden-brown top. To check for doneness, insert a toothpick into the center—it should come out clean.
6. Allow the clafoutis to cool for a few minutes, then dust with powdered sugar if desired for an added touch of sweetness before slicing and serving.
