This was my all time favourite cake growing up. Original
recipe says to serve covered with powdered sugar but ever since we tried it
with the chocolate glaze there was no turning back :D You have to try it out!
Just use good sour cherries for that lovely combination of sweet and sour.
Cherry
cake
Ingredients
500gr sour cherries, fresh and depitted, if frozen leave
them in a strainer to get to room temp
Juice of the cherries ca 1dl
2 eggs
2,5dl sugar
2dl yogurt
2dl oil
6dl flour
2 tsp vanilla sugar
2 tsp baking powder
Knob of butter, flour and some breadcrumbs (optional) for
the baking tray
Proces
In a bowl combine flour and baking powder.
Grease the baking tray with some butter and cover it with
thin a layer of flour. Optional-sprinkle thin layer of breadcrumbs to really
ensure cake won’t stick to the tray.
In a separate bowl mix eggs, sugar and vanilla sugar until
all the sugar crystals are gone. Then add yogurt, oil and flour. Fold in the
cherries and the juice, gently so they don’t break.
Preheat the oven at 180 ° and bake for around
45min. It should be light brown in the end and if you check with a toothpick it
should come out clean.
You can cover the cake with some powdered
sugar or with the chocolate glaze.
