Ingredients

2 cups mixed berries (I used raspberries and blueberries)
2 cups whole sweet cherries, pits removed
2-1/2 cups whole milk
1 cup superfine sugar (known as Baker’s or caster sugar), divided
2 tsps vanilla extract
6 large eggs
1/4 tsp table salt
2 cups all-purpose flour
confectioners' sugar for dusting
whipped cream (optional)

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
Place eight, 1 cup (8 oz.) capacity, strong heat proof dishes onto a baking sheet and into the oven to preheat.
Remove eight tablespoons of the superfine sugar from the 1 cup of sugar and set aside.
Meanwhile, in a large pouring vessel, whisk together the milk, the remaining sugar, vanilla, eggs, salt and flour.
Remove the heated dishes from the oven and divide the cherries and berries evenly between them.
Sprinkle with the sugar that was set aside, one tablespoon per dish, and evenly ladle the egg mixture over the fruit.
Quickly return to the oven and bake the individual dishes on a baking sheet for 25 to 35 minutes, or until the center is no longer runny and dishes are puffed up and golden brown. You will need to watch your oven as cooking times will vary depending on your oven.
Dust with powdered sugar and serve with a dollop of sweet whipped cream. Enjoy!
Serve warm or room temperature.
