Steps:
- Heat oven to 160C/140C fan/gas 4. Grease 6 x 120ml madeleine moulds (see tip, below). Put 50g of the coconut in a food processor with the sugar and whizz until the coconut is as fine as the sugar. Tip into a mixing bowl with the butter, flour, egg and yogurt, and whizz with an electric whisk until smooth. Stir in the cherries, then divide between the moulds. Sit on a baking sheet and bake for 35-45 mins until a skewer poked in comes out clean. Cool for 10 mins, then turn out from the tins to cool completely.
- Heat the jam in a pan or microwave, then sieve to remove the cherry lumps. Tip the remaining coconut onto a plate. Trim any wonky bottoms of the madeleines so they sit flat. Brush a thin coating of jam over each and roll in the coconut to cover. Will keep in an airtight tin for up to 2 days.

Tips:
- Use room temperature ingredients: This will help the batter come together more easily and result in a more tender madeleine.
- Do not overbeat the batter: Overbeating the batter will make the madeleines tough.
- Let the batter rest for at least 30 minutes before baking: This will allow the flavors to develop and the batter to thicken slightly.
- Use a nonstick madeleine pan: This will help the madeleines release easily from the pan.
- Bake the madeleines until they are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: Overbaking will make the madeleines dry.
- Let the madeleines cool for a few minutes before serving: This will allow them to set and firm up.
