This is a recipe that was passed down from my grandmother. She used to make it frequently for her children when they were growing up. It's a delicious recipe that contains fresh sour cherries. You can substitute water for the cherry juice. Ingredients:
2 cups all-purpose flour |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
2 teaspoons baking powder |
1 cup white sugar |
1/2 cup butter |
1 cup milk |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
4 cups pitted sour cherries |
1/2 cup white sugar |
1 1/4 cups cherry juice |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease a 10x10-inch baking dish.
2. In large bowl, combine flour, salt, baking powder and 1 cup sugar; stir. Add butter, milk and vanilla; beat with electric mixer for 2 minutes, or until smooth. Pour mixture into pan and cover evenly with cherries.
3. Heat cherry juice in microwave or in small saucepan, until just simmering. Sprinkle 1/2 cup of sugar over cherries, and pour hot cherry juice on top. Bake 40 to 45 minutes, or until pick inserted in center comes out clean.
