  7. Add the flour mixture and stir just until moistened.
  8. Gently fold in the whole pitted cherries.
  9. Pour the batter into the prepared pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.
  10. Bake for 15 minutes then remove from oven.
  11. Quickly arrange the remaining cherries, cut side down, on the top of the cake.
  12. Return the cake to the oven and bake for another 20 minutes or until golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the cake portion comes out clean.
