Cherry Almond Cake


So I've got a thing about cherries, lovely red jewels bursting with bite - so sue me... you can of course replace these with any fruit - stewed apples, muscat poached pears, raspberries etc.

1 1/2 cup (180g) almond meal
1/2 cup (75g) self-raising flour
4 free-range eggs
250g caster sugar
1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1/4 tsp almond essence
200g unsalted butter, melted, cooled


Mix almonds, flour together. In a seperate bowl, mix together the eggs, caster sugar, vanilla, almond essence and butter. Stir each mixture together, pour into prepared tin, top with fruit and cook for about 50mins, 190C preheated oven.
