Prep 10 min Cook 1 hr Serves 8 Source

Ingredients

  • 5 cups pitted cherries ((720g))
  • ⅔ cup granulated sugar ((133g))
  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter ((83g))
  • 1¼ cup all-purpose flour ((150g))
  • ½ cup granulated sugar ((100g))
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup whole milk ((240mL))
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • Vanilla ice cream (to serve)

Steps

  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 350°F.

  2. 2

    In a medium saucepan, combine the cherry, sugar, cornstarch, and lemon juice. Stir well.

  3. 3

    Cook over medium heat for 8 to 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the juices thicken. Remove from the heat and set aside.

  4. 4

    Set the butter in a 9x13-inch baking dish. Place the baking dish in the oven for about 10 minutes to melt the butter. Remove from the oven and set aside.

  5. 5

    Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. Make a well in the mixture and add the milk and vanilla. Stir until no dry streaks of flour remain.

  6. 6

    Pour the batter into the baking dish over the melted butter. Tilt the pan to allow the batter and butter to settle evenly. Dollop the cherry mixture all over the top.

  7. 7

    Bake for 35 to 40 minutes, until the filling is bubbling and the topping is golden brown all over. Let it cool for 10 minutes before serving with a vanilla ice cream.
