Cherry Cake - a quick and delicious dessert, perfect for any occasion. This simple recipe combines the fluffy texture of the cake with the fresh flavor of cherries, creating a treat that will delight both adults and children. Additionally, it's a great way to take advantage of seasonal fruits. Let's get started! Preparation time: 15 minutes Baking time: 45 minutes Total time: 1 hour Number of servings: 8 Ingredients: - 4 large eggs - 200 g granulated sugar - 1 packet of vanilla sugar - 200 ml sunflower oil or light olive oil - 250 g natural yogurt (or sour cream) - 300 g flour - 1 packet of baking powder - 400 g cherries (fresh or from a jar, well drained) - A pinch of salt Instructions: 1. Prepare the ingredients: Start by gathering all your ingredients. If using jarred cherries, make sure they are well drained to avoid a soggy cake. If using fresh cherries, wash and thaw them if frozen. 2. Beat the eggs: In a large bowl, add the whole eggs, granulated sugar, and vanilla sugar. Use an electric mixer to beat the mixture on high speed for about 5 minutes, until it becomes frothy and doubles in volume. This step is essential for achieving a fluffy cake texture. 3. Add the wet ingredients: Next, pour the oil and yogurt into the egg mixture. Mix on low speed until the ingredients are well combined. 4. Combine the dry ingredients: In another bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and a pinch of salt. This will help to evenly distribute the dry ingredients and prevent lumps. 5. Combine the mixtures: Add the dry ingredient mixture to the bowl with the wet ingredients. Use a spatula or wooden spoon to gently mix until everything is well incorporated. Be careful not to overmix, as this can make the cake dense. 6. Incorporate the cherries: Add the cherries to the batter and gently fold them in to distribute evenly without crushing them. 7. Prepare the baking pan: Preheat the oven to 180°C. Grease a loaf pan (approximately 25x10 cm) with butter or oil and dust with a little flour to prevent sticking. 8. Bake the cake: Pour the mixture into the prepared pan and level the surface. Bake in the preheated oven for 45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. 9. Cooling and serving: Once the cake is baked, remove it from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely. For an extra touch of flavor, you can sprinkle powdered sugar on top before serving. This cherry cake is perfect alongside a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream. Personalized version: Substitute cherries with other seasonal fruits such as blueberries or peaches for a different variation of this delicious recipe. This cherry cake recipe is not only simple but also full of flavor, perfect for a weekend dessert or to impress guests. Enjoy every slice!
