Ingredients
Instructions
- Heat oven to 350°F.
- Grease and lightly dust with flour an 8-inch square baking pan.
- Combine beaten egg, melted margarine or butter, sugar, sifted self-rising flour, chopped nuts, and drained canned cherries in the listed order.
- Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan.
- Bake for 45 minutes.
- Spoon Red Sauce over each serving.
Tips & Substitutions
For a richer flavor, consider using unsalted butter instead of margarine. If you're looking for a nut-free version, you can substitute the chopped nuts with additional cherries or even chocolate chips. Make sure to sift the self-rising flour to avoid lumps, ensuring a smoother batter. This recipe can also be adapted with different fruits for a unique twist, like peaches or blueberries.
Serving Suggestions
Serve Audrey's Cherry Supreme warm or at room temperature, drizzled with Red Sauce for a delightful touch. This dish pairs beautifully with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream on the side. For a complete dessert experience, consider serving it alongside a cup of coffee, perhaps with a slice of Belle Baganz's Coffee Cake for a delightful brunch.
Storage & Reheating
Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to three days. If you prefer, you can refrigerate them for longer freshness, up to a week. To reheat, simply warm individual pieces in the microwave for about 15-20 seconds or until heated through, keeping them moist and delicious.
