Preparation

Step 1

Butter a 10-inch cast-iron skillet, six mini cast-iron skillets or au gratin dishes, or six 6- to 8-ounce ramekins or custard cups with the softened butter; set aside. In a medium bowl beat eggs and granulated sugar with an electric mixer for 3 minutes or until light and lemon colored. Stir in milk, cream, flour, liqueur, orange zest, vanilla, and salt.

Arrange berries in prepared skillet. Carefully pour batter over berries. Bake in a 375 degrees F oven for 10 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 350 degrees F and bake for 25 to 30 minutes more (20 to 25 minutes more for smaller pans) or until filling is set and top is golden brown.
Sprinkle with powdered sugar and serve warm with creme fraiche.
