Great little loaves to have handy in the freezer for when unexpected, or expected company arrives. This is from the Company's Coming - Cooking for Two cookbook. It's moist, tasty, and very easy to prepare. They say it makes one small 7 x 7 cake, but I baked it in two mini loaf pans for 40 - 45 minutes. Freezes well too. I also tried substituting 1 for 1, whole wheat flour for the all purpose. Not a good idea ;) Ingredients:
1/3 cup butter |
1/2 cup white sugar |
2 eggs |
1/4 teaspoon almond extract |
1 cup flour |
1/2 teaspoon baking powder |
1/4 cup ground almonds |
1/3 cup red glazed cherries, chopped |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350°.
2. Cream butter and sugar together.
3. Beat in eggs, one at a time.
4. Add extract and blend well.
5. Stir in flour, baking powder, ground almonds and cherries.
6. Pour into 2 greased mini loaf pans.
7. Bake for approximately 40 minutes or until wooden pick comes out clean.
