Well, I opened my fridge to get a nectarine (since I like them cold and hate all the fruit flies when you leave them out) and discoverd some mushy spots and rather mealy textured, but still good-tasting fruit. Not wanting to waste them, I looked here for an idea of cooking the fruit where the texture would be irrelevant. This is an absolutely wonderful dessert. I did not have yogurt on hand so I used sour cream; I doubled the recipe and used "almost" a whole cup of low-fat sour cream. I also used 2% milk instead of soy milk. I was pleasantly surprised that it came out with a "custard"-like texture - almost like flan, surrounding the nectarine chunks. I also used splenda. Wonderful cold the next morning for breakfast too!

Wonderful! I had a bunch of ripe organic nectarines and this was the perfect use. Followed the rceipe exactly, although I did peel the nectarines. Not overly sweet, and a tad "wetter" than other clafoutis I've made. My kids gobbled it down for breakfast and begged for more. Thanks for sharing the rceipe!

What an enjoyable combination! Perfect for when you need a light summer dessert but you want something a little dressier than just plain peaches. I used regular milk and increased the vanilla to 1 Tbls. I was out of plain yogurt so I substituted low-fat sour cream. It took about 40 minutes cooking time for it to be 'set'. I served it topped with whipped cream about 2 hours after it came out of the oven and it was still slightly warm. Everyone loved it...judging by the second helpings that were taken. Thanks Derf for encouraging me to try a new type of dessert!
