Cherry and Almond Pie

Ingredients

Butter 100 g

Sugar 100 g

Vanilla sugar 10 g

Eggs 2

Sour cream 80 g

Almonds 50 g

Baking powder 1 tsp

Salt 1/4 tsp

Flour 175 g

Cherries 150 g

Preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius. Line a rectangular baking pan (mine is 19 x 27 cm) with parchment paper. In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, sour cream, sugar, salt, vanilla extract, butter, and almonds (reserve 2 tablespoons for sprinkling). Sift the flour and baking powder over the top. Mix well until the mixture resembles thick sour cream. Transfer the mixture to the pan, smooth it out, and arrange the frozen cherries on top, pressing lightly.

In a bowl, combine the almonds, 1 tablespoon of sugar, 1 tablespoon of softened butter, and 2-3 tablespoons of flour. Rub into crumbs and sprinkle over the pie. Bake until lightly golden.

Enjoy!
