Ingredients
Scale
4 cups fresh cherries, pitted and halved
1 cup granulated sugar (adjust to taste)
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 tsp baking powder
½ cup whole milk
½ cup unsalted butter, melted
1 tsp vanilla extract
¼ tsp salt
Instructions
1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease an 8-inch square baking dish with butter or cooking spray.
2. In a large bowl, toss the pitted cherries with half of the sugar and let them sit to release their juices.
3. In another bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt. Add melted butter, remaining sugar, milk, and vanilla until smooth.
4. Pour the cherry mixture into the greased dish. Spoon the batter over the cherries; don’t worry if some fruit shows through.
5. Bake for 35-40 minutes until bubbly and golden brown on top. Let cool slightly before serving.
Notes
For added flavor, consider mixing in a tablespoon of lemon zest with the cherries.
Swap cherries for seasonal fruits like peaches or blueberries for a refreshing twist.
Store leftovers in the fridge for up to three days and reheat as desired.
