Ingredients
- 1 cup white sugar
- 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 2 cups pitted fresh sweet cherries
- 1 tablespoon white sugar
- ½ cup olive oil
- 4 large eggs
- 1 (6 ounce) container plain yogurt
- 1 tablespoon olive oil (Optional)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Whisk 1 cup sugar, flour, baking powder, and baking soda in a mixing bowl until evenly combined.
- Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat. Cook and stir pitted cherries in the butter until tender, sprinkling them with 1 tablespoon of sugar, 8 to 10 minutes. Set aside.
- Form a well in the center of the dry ingredients, and pour in 1/2 cup olive oil, eggs, and yogurt; lightly stir the mixture to make a soft dough. Scrape batter into a 9×12-inch baking dish. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon of olive oil (if using), and top with cherries.
- Bake in the preheated oven until cake is set and golden on top and a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean, about 40 minutes.
