Recipe Information

Cooking method: in the oven .

Total cooking time: 1 hour 30 minutes

Ingredients:

for test:

premium wheat flour – 190 g
chicken eggs – 3 pieces
granulated sugar – 100 g
salt - a pinch
butter – 190 g
baking powder - 1 teaspoon
poppy seed – 2 tablespoons

For filling:

fresh frozen cherries – 100 g
potato starch – 2 tablespoons

For decoration:

powdered sugar – 2-3 tablespoons

and:

baking dish 20*10.

Preparation:

The butter must be removed from the refrigerator in advance so that it softens and comes to room temperature. Cut the softened butter into small pieces and place in a large bowl.
Add granulated sugar to a cup with butter. Using a mixer at medium speed, beat the butter and sugar until pale.
Continuing to beat the butter and sugar, add one egg at a time. The mass should become homogeneous in structure and creamy.
Sift the required amount of flour into a separate cup, add baking powder and salt, mix well.
Add the flour mixture to the butter mixture and mix well with a wooden spoon until smooth. The dough will be quite thick.
Place 1/3 of the resulting dough in a separate cup.
Add confectionery poppy seeds to the rest of the dough and mix well so that the poppy seeds are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Thaw freshly frozen cherries, drain the resulting juice, add starch and stir until the berries are well coated with starch.
Line a baking pan with parchment. First, place the dough without additives into the mold and smooth it with a pastry spatula.
Place cherries coated in starch in an even layer on top of the dough.
And only then, put the dough with the addition of poppy seeds on the cherries. Flatten the dough well with a pastry spatula.
Bake the cake in an oven preheated to 180 degrees for about 35 minutes, until cooked and browned. Check the readiness of the cake with a long splinter. Use a splinter to pierce the cake in the middle, preferably reaching to the middle of the depth of the cake. If the splinter is wet, then the cake is not ready yet; you need to continue baking. If it is dry, then this is a sure sign that the cake is ready.
Remove the finished cherry cake from the oven and cool in the baking dish.
When the cake has cooled completely, sprinkle it with powdered sugar, remove from the baking pan onto a plate and cut into portions. Bon appetit!

Note to the owner:

If you use a silicone mold for baking, there is no need to cover it with parchment.

And today we turned out very successful little cupcakes with cherries.

The principle of preparing the dough is the same as for a large cake (except that there are slightly fewer ingredients), only this time I decided to pour the dough into small silicone molds for a change. It turned out cute, tasty and beautiful! I offer you another homemade baking recipe.

Ingredients:

Makes 15 portioned cupcakes –

2 eggs;
2/3 cup sugar;
3 – 5 tablespoons of sour cream;
70 g butter;
half a teaspoon of baking soda, quenched with vinegar;
1 ¼ cups flour;
a glass of pitted cherries, either fresh or canned.

How to bake:

First, you should prepare the cherries: remove the seeds if the berries are fresh, or immediately put them in a colander if they are canned, so that the excess juice drains from the cherries - it is not needed in the dough; due to the large amount of juice, the cake may turn out viscous and unbaked in taste.

Prepare the dough as usual for muffins: grind the eggs with sugar.

Pour sour cream into a bowl, add a spoonful of soda and quench with vinegar, stir quickly.

Add melted butter and stir again.

Then add some of the flour and mix again.

After adding the rest of the flour, pour the cherries into it and mix again.

Spread the finished dough with a tablespoon into silicone molds about half the height of the mold, but not more than 2/3, otherwise the cupcakes may “run away.” You can use paper or metal molds, but in the former the baked goods are deformed, and in the latter it is very difficult to wash off dried dough.

Place the molds with the dough on a baking sheet and place in a preheated oven.

Over medium heat, the cupcakes will be ready in 25 - 30 minutes (test with a wooden stick).

Having taken the baking sheet out of the oven, wait a while because the silicone molds get very hot, then shake the cupcakes out of them. Taking baked goods out of silicone molds is a pleasure! This shape can easily be turned inside out :)

Before trying, you can sprinkle the cherry cupcakes with powdered sugar to make the baked goods look even more elegant!

And sometimes, in order to build a delicious beauty, you don’t even need to bake! This is the kind of house my kids and I sometimes build, and then we tear it down and eat it :).

In general, cupcakes appeared a very long time ago, they already existed during the times of Ancient Rome, so you can now imagine how many recipes were accumulated and passed on from mouth to mouth. The cupcake got its name from the famous English word “Sake” - cake. The cake became especially popular back in the 16th century, when sugar appeared, which meant that now fruit could be added to baked goods without them spoiling. They baked a cupcake, and even now they bake it, from sponge or yeast dough with various fillings - dried fruits, nuts, jams, even recipes for cupcakes with vegetables were found! There were so many experiments! Nowadays, with the development of recipes, cupcakes are being replaced by new-fangled muffins, cupcakes, and biscuits, but the traditional cupcake today will always remain in our memory. Therefore, we will not deviate from traditions and will focus today on cherry muffins and its various modifications.

Any cherry baked goods are a holiday for adults and children. It just so happens that we rarely use this seasonal ingredient for our confectionery products, since it is believed that this kind of baked goods is easier to buy than to toil in the kitchen all day, risking that the result will spoil the mood even more.

Now I will prove to you that this is not so: my grandmother taught me how to make amazing muffins with cherries, which are very tasty, hold their shape perfectly and do not require any special knowledge or experience from the potential cook.

I have prepared for you a step-by-step recipe for an easy and quick perfect cherry muffin, which you can prepare at any time, since it does not require rare and expensive ingredients, and can also be lean. You only need one essential ingredient - a sweet, fresh cherry!

Kitchen appliances

It is very important to choose the right utensils and equipment for baking such a cake:

take a round muffin pan with a hole in the middle or several silicone molds (in a pinch, paper ones will do, but I don’t recommend using metal ones),
deep bowls (several pieces, one of them is iron) with a volume of 500 to 800 ml,
teaspoons and tablespoons,
medium sieve,

kitchen scales or measuring cup,
steel whisk,
towels (linen or cotton) and a wooden spatula,
Among other things, keep ready equipment that will greatly help you in the process of preparing this famous dish: a blender or mixer.

Did you know? Please do not prepare or store your baked goods using plastic utensils or related tools. Plastic has a very bad effect on the quality of food due to harmful microelements, and also gives products a terrible smell.

You will need:

Important! If you decide to make a Lenten muffin with cherries, then replace each chicken egg with two tablespoons of corn or potato starch, and you can omit the butter by adding 30 ml of sunflower oil, just be sure to use live, unrefined oil.

Ready! Release the warm cake from the mold as soon as it has cooled thoroughly, and then place your fragrant product on a serving dish. Don't forget to sprinkle some powdered sugar on top to make the cake look even more delicious.

My mom also drizzles well-baked little cupcakes with a little cherry syrup, 1 teaspoon per cupcake, and sometimes tops them with sour cream frosting because sour cream or cream goes perfectly with the juicy berries. Eat cherry muffins with coffee or fresh tea, just don’t take them with you to work - my colleagues just snap them up and I don’t get anything.

Video recipe for making cherry cake

Let's look at the detailed preparation of cherry muffins according to the recipe just given.

After we have baked muffins with cherries, it would be useful to mention other filling options that may be useful for those who often try to pamper their family with a delicious delicacy.

Try delicate and very fast

Trusting the basis, the base, it is easier to make adjustments and not lose quality: select new flavors and mix spices yourself, replace traditional fruits or combine them with exotic ones, transform the usual color and configuration of products. So, the recipe below for a simple cupcake with cherries is from the category of fundamental, basic ones - no matter what additives are thrown into the dough, the size and shape are chosen, the taste plus the texture of the crumb will not let you down.

For a children's party, bake portioned cherry cupcakes - they are easy for kids to hold in their hands, decorate with cream like cupcakes, and to reduce the time, fill a large heat-resistant container with dough. Glass, silicone, Teflon, ceramic, of course, fireproof, non-stick are suitable. Feel free to exchange cherries for the usual raisins, multi-colored candied fruits, pieces of dried apricots, and other dried, fresh or frozen berries. Minor improvised adjustments expand the scope of baking imagination and allow you to pamper your loved ones with a sweet variety more often. Take note of the cherry cupcake recipe, it will help out more than once!

Note. The cake is equally good with both fresh and frozen cherries.

Cooking time: 50 minutes / Number of servings: 10-12

Ingredients

premium wheat flour 280 g
eggs 3 pcs.
sugar 180 g
butter 180 g
baking powder 7 g
salt 2 g
cherries 150 g
vanilla sugar 5-10 g
powdered sugar 20 g

Preparation

Separate the egg yolks from the whites and place them in different containers. Beat the egg whites with a pinch of salt until fluffy and fluffy - turn on the mixer at maximum speed for 2-3 minutes. Then grind the yolks together with granulated sugar - mix quite vigorously.

Pour pre-dissolved and by then cooled butter into the yolk-sugar mixture. We do not stop the circular movements - each time after introducing the next component, knead with a whisk or spoon. A stick of butter can be melted in the microwave or on the top heat of the stove.

Add flour mixed with a portion of baking powder and immediately add dry flavoring (vanilla sugar). A simple cake with cherries is saturated not only with the aroma of vanilla, but also with lemon, other citrus fruits, a drop of rum, spicy nutmeg, and cinnamon. Improvise!

The flour mass quickly becomes too dense, therefore, following the recipe for the famous Stolichny cake, we stir in the protein foam twice: now and at the end of the process. We transfer about a third of the white “clouds” into a bowl with the dough and carefully continue kneading - the texture becomes moisturized and loses its thickness, becoming more viscous.

Thaw the frozen berries (we choose fresh cherries during the season!), remove the pits, and lightly “dust” them with flour to remove excess juice. Mix the dough with cherries.

Finally, add the remaining whites one spoon at a time and knead the viscous, sticky dough with pieces of berries.

The dough is suitable for both large and portioned products, both for the “brick”, “ring” configuration, and others. Grease the inside of a heat-resistant mold with a piece of cold butter, sprinkle with flour, shake off the excess - throw on the “French shirt” known to bakers. Fill with dough - send the semi-finished product into a preheated oven, bake at 180 degrees for 35-45 minutes.

We pierce the “grown” cherry cake with a splinter - check the dryness of the crumb, cool it in a container, then turn it over onto a plate/board and sprinkle with sifted powdered sugar if desired.
