Sour Cherry Pudding Cake

Ingredients

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 cup white sugar
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• 1 cup milk
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 3 cups pitted tart red cherries
• 1 cup white sugar
• 1/4 teaspoon almond extract

Directions

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.

In a bowl, stir together the flour, 1 cup of sugar, baking powder, milk, and vegetable oil to make a smooth batter; scrape batter into the prepared baking dish.

In a separate bowl, stir the cherries with 1 cup of sugar and the almond extract; spoon the cherry mixture over the batter.

Bake in the preheated oven until the cake is lightly browned and a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean, about 30 minutes.
