Ingredients

2 1/4 cups all purpose flour*

3/4 cup sugar

2/3 cup butter, softened

1/2 tsp baking powder

1/2 tsp baking soda

3/4 cup evaporated milk ( not condensed milk)

1 tbsp lemon juice

1 egg

1 tsp almond extract

1 can ( 19 oz/540 ml) cherry pie filling ( E.D. Smith is good)**

1/2 cup sliced almonds

Directions

Combine flour and sugar in large bowl.

Cut in butter til mixture is crumbly. Set aside 1/2 cup of the crumbs

Add baking powder and soda to remaining flour mixture.

Combine evaporated milk and lemon juice. Stir well and leave 5 min until thickened. To this add egg and extract and beat well.

Add to dry ingredients and stir until just moistened.

Spread 2/3 of batter over bottom and about 1 inch up the side of a 9" greased springform pan to form a shell.

Spread pie filling in shell.

Drop small spoonfuls of remaining batter over pie filling.

Stir almonds into reserved crumb mixture and sprinkle evenly over cake.

Bake at 350F/180C for 50 - 55 minutes.

*May sub 2 1/4 cps Robin Hood all purpose Wheat and Oat Flour OR 2 1/2 cups cake and pastry flour.

**My sub with different pie fillings i.e. blueberry (omit almond extract, add lemon zest) or apple ( add some cinnamon) peach, etc

Use your imagination for different flavor combinations. Use different nuts too. Apple goes so well with pecan also. Have fun. Be creative. I seldom follow a recipe exactly.
