Ingredients

Scale

Every ingredient in this cake plays a vital role in creating its unique flavor profile. Here’s what you’ll need:

  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup buttermilk
  • 1 cup fresh cherries, pitted and halved
  • 1/2 cup sliced almonds

If you’re unable to find fresh cherries, frozen ones can work too, just make sure to thaw and drain them well. For a dairy-free version, substitute the buttermilk with almond milk mixed with a teaspoon of lemon juice.

Instructions

Let’s walk through the process of crafting this delightful cake, step by step:

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9-inch round cake pan.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. This step is crucial for a light texture, just as my grandma taught me.
  4. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition, followed by the vanilla extract.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, alternating with the buttermilk, starting and ending with the flour mixture.
  6. Gently fold in the cherries and almonds, being careful not to overmix. Grandma always said, “Treat the batter like a good friend, with a gentle hand.”
  7. Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.
  8. Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
