Ingredients
- 1 Tbsp unsalted butter to grease the pan
- 3 cups sweet cherries (1 lb before pitting), stemmed and pitted
- 1 cup whole milk
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 3 large eggs
- 1 Tbsp rum, kirsch or Cognac optional, or add an extra 1 tsp vanilla
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour spooned and leveled
- 1/8 tsp fine sea salt
- confectioners sugar for dusting
Whipped Cream Ingredients
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- 2 Tbsp powdered sugar
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350 ̊F with a rack in the center of the oven. Generously grease the bottom and sides of your 9-inch pie pan (*see note 1) with 1 Tbsp butter. Pit the cherries with a cherry pitter. Add cherries to the buttered pan and spread out evenly.
- In a blender, combine the remaining ingredients: milk, 1/2 cup sugar, eggs, rum (if using), vanilla, flour and salt. Blend on high speed for 1 minute.
- Pour the batter over the cherries and give the pan a jolt to make sure the batter fills in around the cherries properly.
- Bake at 350 ̊F for about 50-55 minutes or until it is puffed and browned and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Cool for 20 minutes then serve dusted with powdered sugar. Once it’s plated, serve with generous dollops of whipped cream if desired.
How to Make Whipped Cream:
- In a large mixing bowl, combine cream, sugar and vanilla. Beat on medium/high speed until medium-stiff peaks form.
Notes
- (1) Options for baking: Deep 9” pie pan, or other oven-safe 7-8 cup baking dish, or 10” cast iron pan
