How to Make Cherry Loaf To Cheer You Up
- Wash and dry 2 cups of fresh cherries. Toss gently with 2 tablespoons of all-purpose flour in a medium bowl to prevent sinking.
- Grease and flour a 1kg (approximately 9x5 inch) loaf tin.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat 4 large eggs one at a time with an electric mixer, starting on low speed, increasing to medium, then high until light and fluffy (about 3-5 minutes).
- Gradually add 1 ½ cups granulated sugar, beating well until fully incorporated.
- Add 1 cup (2 sticks) softened unsalted margarine, alternating with 2 cups all-purpose flour, beginning and ending with the flour. Mix until just combined.
- Stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (or other desired essence).
- Gently fold in the floured cherries.
- Spoon the batter evenly into the prepared loaf tin.
- Sprinkle with ¼ cup of granulated sugar (optional).
- Bake in the center of a preheated moderate oven at 160°C (320°F) or Gas Mark 3 for 90-105 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean. Check for doneness after 60 minutes.
- Let the loaf cool in the tin for 10 minutes before turning it out onto a wire rack to cool completely.
- Once cooled, slice and serve. Enjoy!
