When this month arrives, the fruit shops are filled with cherries, and it is a pleasure to enjoy such a rich, healthy food that so much play can give us. Children love this fruit and we have all played to put "earrings" of cherries hooking them two by two in the ear. But today we are going to make a sponge cake with sponge cake texture, a version of the classic clafoutis French that will be great for breakfasts and snacks.
The good thing is that this cake has no difficult ingredient to find and its preparation is very simple so, taking advantage of the cherry season, you have no apology for not doing it this weekend and discover why it is a favorite of young and old.

- 3 eggs size L, 60 g of white sugar and another 60 of brown sugar, 50 g of almond powder, 100 g of flour, 150 ml of milk, 8 g of chemical yeast or impeller and 300 g of cherries
How to make a homemade cherry pie
Although tradition says that it is better to use the cherries with their bone because they add more flavor to the cakeFor safety for children we have preferred to prepare the recipe for this cake, with boneless cherries. It will not take long to remove the bone.
To make the cake dough, we weigh the ingredients and mix them in a bowl beating with the rods so that they mix well. If you are more comfortable, you can also do it with a kitchen robot, without major problem. After whipping and mixing a few minutes, we have everything ready.
Once well mixed, the dough will be a little more liquid than that of the normal biscuits but do not worry that then it curdles in the oven without problem. We dump the dough into a round cake pan. If you have one of detachable hoop it will be more comfortable to take it out after baking.
Then come on placing the cherries on the surface of the cake ensuring that they are distributed homogeneously. When cooked in the oven, the dough will partially cover the cherries. Bake for 45 minutes at 180º and take out when we can put a skewer and leave clean.
