Ingredients

For the filling:

450g/1lb fresh stoned cherries

2 level tbsp granulated sugar

2 tbsp kirsch (or red wine)

2 tbsp ground biscuit crumbs (digestive biscuits)

For the batter:

2 whole eggs

2 egg yolks

85g/3oz sugar

30g/1oz cornflour

250g/9oz double cream

Directions

Preheat oven to 220C/425F/Gas7.

Combine the cherries, sugar and kirsch. Place in an ovenproof dish and put in the oven for 5 minutes until the cherries are hot. Drain the cherries, saving the juices, and cool.

Reduce the oven to 180C/350F/Gas 4. For the batter, whisk the eggs and egg yolks until light and frothy, add the sugar and whisk until well blended. Add the cornflour and double cream, and then set aside to rest.

Mix the cherries with the biscuit crumbs, sprinkle into the ovenproof dish and then pour over the batter. Bake for 30-35 minutes until golden and firm.

Leave to cool to room temperature, dust with caster sugar and serve with crème fraîche flavoured with cherry juice or a good vanilla ice cream.

Enjoy!! :)
