Servings 4
Ingredients
- 5 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon fine sea salt
- 1 cup milk
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- ¼ teaspoon almond extract optional
- 1 can cherry pie filling (21 ounces) or 2 ½ cups homemade cherry pie filling
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Place the butter in a 9x9-inch baking dish; place the pan in the oven to allow the butter to melt while the oven preheats.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Add the milk, vanilla, and almond extract; whisk until smooth. The batter will be thin.
- Once the butter has fully melted and the oven has preheated, pour the batter on top of the melted butter in the pan. DO NOT stir.
- Spoon the cherry pie filling evenly over the top of the batter. Again, DO NOT stir.
- Place the pan back in the oven and bake for 50-55 minutes, until the center is set and the top is golden.
- Let cool for a few minutes before serving with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
