Ingredients

  • 4 cups frozen cherries
  • 1/3 cup cane sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon almond extract

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat the oven to 350℉. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Tumble cherries onto the prepared pan. Leave to defrost for a few minutes while the oven preheats.
  3. Sprinkle cherries with sugar and almond extract. Stir to coat the cherries.
  4. Place on the middle rack of the oven. Roast for 40 minutes, rotating the pan once halfway through the baking time. Cherries will darken, juices will run and create a syrupy-sauce
  5. Remove from oven and cool slightly. Transfer into a jar while still warm, before the juices have a change to congeal. I like to use a firm spatula or bench scraper to get all of the cherry sauce off the pan.
  6. Serve once cooled or cover and refrigerate for up to 7 days.
