Time 1h5m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

5 ounces all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 ounces superfine sugar
1 egg
4 tablespoons milk
3 1/2 ounces butter, melted
12 ounces cherries
confectioners' sugar, for dusting
1 ounce all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 ounce superfine sugar
1 ounce butter, at room temperature, diced

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F Grease and base line an 8in round cake tin, about 2in deep.
  • Sift the flour, cinnamon and superfine sugar into a bowl. Make a well in the centre and add the egg, milk and melted butter, then combine with a wooden spoon or electric whisk. Beat well to make a thick, smooth mixture. Spoon into the tin and spread evenly.
  • Remove the stalks and stones from the cherries, using a pitter if you have one to keep the fruit whole. Scatter the cherries over the mixture and gently press them inches
  • To make the topping, tip all the ingredients into a bowl. Rub in the butter with your fingers to make a crumb-like mixture, then work the mixture until it comes together in pea-sized pieces. Scatter the topping over the cherries.
  • Bake for 30-35 minutes until a skewer pushed into the centre comes out clean. Leave in the tin until cool enough to handle, then run a knife round the edge, remove the cake from the tin and leave on a wire rack until completely cold.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, ripe cherries: Fresh cherries have a better flavor and texture than frozen or canned cherries. If you can't find fresh cherries, frozen unsweetened cherries are a good substitute.
  • Pit the cherries before using: You can use a cherry pitter or a knife to remove the pits. Be careful not to cut yourself.
  • Use a bundt pan: A bundt pan helps to create a moist and evenly cooked cake. If you don't have a bundt pan, you can use a 9x13 inch baking pan.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter can make the cake tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: This usually takes about 45-50 minutes. Don't overbake the cake, or it will be dry.
  • Let the cake cool completely before frosting: This will help to prevent the frosting from melting.
  • Store the cake in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days: You can also freeze the cake for up to 2 months.

Conclusion:

Fresh cherry cake is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With its moist and flavorful crumb, sweet and tart cherry filling, and creamy frosting, this cake is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. So next time you're looking for a special treat, give this fresh cherry cake a try.
