Cuisine: Dessert
Serves: 8 servings
Ingredients
  • 2½ cups sour cherries
  • 3 eggs
  • 1 cup milk, at room temperature
  • 2 tablespoons melted butter, cooled to room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ¼ teaspoon almond extract (optional)
  • ¾ teaspoon fine sea salt
  • ½ cup sugar
  • ¾ cup flour
  • Confectioner's sugar for topping
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Butter a shallow 9 or 10-inch cake or quiche pan. For individual servings, use 4-inch baking dishes.
  2. Scatter the cherries in the bottom of the pan.
  3. Place the eggs, milk, butter, vanilla and almond extracts, salt, and sugar in a medium mixing bowl. Beat with a handheld electric mixer or whisk until thoroughly combined. Add the flour and mix until smooth.
  4. Pour over the cherries. Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake for 20 minutes, 15 minutes for small baking dishes. Lower the oven temperature to 350 degrees F and bake an additional 20 minutes, 15 minutes for small dishes.
  5. Check for doneness by inserting the tip of a knife into the center. It should come out clean (no streaky raw batter).
