This sour cherry and apricot cake combines two summer fruits: spread cooked vanilla pudding over a simple batter, arrange sour cherries and apricot halves on top, and sprinkle with buttery crumbs. Out of season, use well-drained canned fruit.

Instructions

Tip: tap a step to mark it as done.

  1. Pudding

    10 min

    Mix the pudding mix with some of the milk and the sugar. Bring the remaining milk to a boil, pour in the pudding mixture, and cook, stirring constantly, until thick. Let cool for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.

  2. Batter

    10 min

    Preheat the oven to 180 °C (350 °F). Beat the eggs with the sugar, pour in the oil and milk, and stir in the flour and baking powder. Pour the batter into a greased and floured baking pan about 25 × 35 cm.

  3. Layers

    10 min

    Spread the pudding over the batter. Arrange the sour cherries and the halved, pitted apricots on top, with the apricots cut side up. Rub the flour, butter, and sugar together with your fingertips to form crumbs, then sprinkle over the cake.

  4. Bake

    40 min

    Bake for 35–40 minutes, until the crumb topping is golden. Let the cake cool, then cut into pieces.

Tip: Let the pudding cool slightly without setting; lukewarm pudding spreads easily and will not run out during baking.
