Cherry Coffee Cake

May 23, 2013 By Jennifer @ PB and P Design 8 Comments

Hi Everyone!

Last weekend for Mother’s Day, Little Jenny and I went cherry picking and we came home with 6lbs of yummy, juicy, cherries.  I love cherries, but I had no idea what to make with them.  On Mother’s Day my Husband asked if I could make the Blueberry Coffee Cake but with Cherries instead.  I thought, sure why not.  It was a great idea, I must admit.  The cake turned out amazingly!  It’s fluffy, light and almost tastes like cherry pie.  I’m all for that!!

Cherry Coffee Cake

I have to admit sometimes my Husband gets great ideas and making this cake with cherries was a wonderful idea!  The cake is perfect for breakfast or a nice light snack.  I love that you get 12 nice size slices for only 123 calories.  Yah!

Cherry Coffee Cake


The only substitutions I made was on the flour.  I used white whole wheat flour and all purpose flour.  I have to admit using all purpose flour really made the cake rise a tad bit more than with whole wheat pastry flour.  I also used almond extract instead of vanilla.  I think almonds and cherries go so nicely together.  Here is the cake before it went into the oven.

Cherry Coffee Cake

When I started to cut the cake, I realized I didn’t get a picture of it, fresh out of the oven.  Here it is with a cut down the middle.  Speaking of cutting, the cherries do stick a bit, so the slices are not as perfect as the blueberry coffee cake.

Cherry Coffee Cake

I can’t believe how much time I have spent in the past couple of days pitting cherries.  Thank goodness for a cherry pitter.  I couldn’t even imagine doing this without one.  I did end up with stained hands too, but that’s ok, it was well worth it.

A light, fluffy cake full of fresh cherries and sprinkled with sugar.
Serves: 12 Slices
Ingredients
  • ¾ cup whole wheat white flour
  • ¾ cup all purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • ¼ tsp baking soda
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 2 tbsp coconut oil (melted) or canola oil
  • 2½ tbsp unsalted butter, room temperature
  • ⅓ cup sugar (I used ½ cup NuNaturals Presweet Tagatose)
  • ¼ cup egg substitute or 1 egg
  • 1 tsp almond extract
  • ½ cup unsweetened coconut milk or non-fat milk
  • 1 cup cherries, fresh, cut in half
  • 1 tbsp. Turbinado sugar (Sugar in the raw)
Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F. Spray a 9-inch square baking dish with cooking spray.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flours, baking powder, and salt; set a side.
  3. Using an electric mixer, beat the coconut oil, butter and sugar. Beat in the almond extract and egg until blended.
  4. Add the flour mixture in three additions, alternating with the coconut milk, beating after each addition until just combined.
  5. Spread the batter in the bottom of the baking dish. I used my fingers to spread it out. Lay 1 cup cherries on the batter and sprinkle with turbinado sugar.
  6. Bake the cake for 20-23 minutes or until it is golden brown.

Cherry Coffee Cake

I figured since I was pitting cherries, I might as well make some cherry quick jam.  I love the jam!  I use it in my yogurt and ice cream.  It’s so good!!  I love that you don’t need to can it either and it will last a couple of weeks in the refrigerator.

Well I’m off to do some kitchen cleaning, not fun, but it must be done!

Have a great day!

Toodles,

Jennifer

    I saw cherries on a market on Tuesday, I’m going to visit one today as well and I’m definitely buying cherries today. I have a good reason now 🙂

Happy Monday! I’m sharing with you a rare view o Happy Monday! I’m sharing with you a rare view of my kitchen. What’s so rare about it! It’s clean. 🤣 
.
So this weekend our refrigerator broke. The freezer no longer works and the fridge is not getting cool enough. Ugh!! We bought our Whirlpool refrigerator about 4 years ago and spent near $3000 for it. It sure didn’t last long. 
.
After reading reviews on a million refrigerators, they all seem like crap. I need your help! Do you have a refrigerator that you recommend? 
.
I saw a Frigidaire one that we are debating on, but not sure? The reviews are good, but says, they were collected from a promotion. So I’m not sure how much I trust that? Anyway, any recommendations that you have would be great! 
.
Have a great day!

I have been decorating the house for Easter and Spring. I love how this little space turned out. I am loving the bright pastels. I added my new bunny/chick pillow that I got from @12timbers. It matches so perfectly and it’s so cute. I also couldn’t resist the chick pillow from Target. 
🐰
Have the best day!

Hi Everyone! I hope you had a great weekend. I mus Hi Everyone! I hope you had a great weekend. I must say I was disappointed in the Super Bowl. I really wanted the 49ers to win. Anyway, this weekend I refreshed my guest bathroom.
🐰
I have to say my new favorite item is the towel holder. It’s so cute and practical. I don’t have a hand towel rack and I hated leaving my towels on my counter. I saw the towel holder from Target and had to get it. It’s the Hearth and Hand brand.
🐰
I added some bunnies for Spring and a touch of pink for some color. The hand towels are from Homegoods. They have so many bunnies and Easter decor. I had to control myself because I was with my husband. I may go back. 
🐰
Have a great day!!

Happy Monday!! I have to confess to you. I still h Happy Monday!! I have to confess to you. I still have Christmas in my kitchen.😳 I don’t know where to put it, so I haven’t taken it down. It’s not a lot, but just enough to where I can’t fit it. Ugh!  Please tell me I’m not the only one. 
💕
I did do one little spot for Valentines, which I think is so cute. I love decorating with Valentines candy. I can’t resist the pinks and the conversation hearts. I do not plan on going all out decorating this season, as time is going so fast, but I may add some hearts here and there. 
💕
Do you decorate for Valentine’s Day?

Hi Everyone! With spring around the corner, now is Hi Everyone! With spring around the corner, now is the time to get your chores done, so when the warmer weather arrives you can enjoy it. My goal is to refresh my bedroom. I am slowly getting rid of stuff that I no longer need and slowly adding new decor. So hopefully in a few weeks it will be done. #twopageshome
♥️
The first thing I added are these stunning customized curtains that I was gifted from @twopagescurtains. Guys, I’m in love! The curtains are just so pretty! I am loving the way it shades the sun, but still lets the light in. Exactly the look I was going for.
♥️
The curtains I chose are the “Liz Linen Drape Soft”. They are a linen curtain that is environmentally friendly, hypoallergenic, long lasting, dust preventative, and breathable. They are also wrinkle free. I didn’t have to steam them. They came right out of the package ready to hang. They also come in 38 colors and 7 shadings to choose from. There is an option for everyone.
♥️
I’ll be honest I was intimidated on ordering custom curtains. I was so afraid I would order them wrong, but I didn’t. Two Pages has a measurement finder that asks you a few easy questions and boom you have your custom curtain size. It was so simple.
♥️
If you are looking for some new curtains or shades for your home, I highly recommend Two Page Curtains. I absolutely love them. They were kind enough to give my followers an 8% discount code: PBANDP. Link in bio
♥️
Are you planning on refreshing any spaces?

Happy Friday! Hope you had a wonderful holiday sea Happy Friday! Hope you had a wonderful holiday season. I am slowly working on taking my Christmas decor down. I still have my tree up, but I love the twinkling lights, and the real reason is I need my husband to get the box out of the garage. lol 
💙
I am going with blues in the living room. I just find blue calming and peaceful. The first area I styled is the coffee table. Sorry about the views. I have a small, thin living room.
💙
I decided to go light on the decor and add some fresh faux greenery. I hate leaving the remote controls out, so I decided to store them in a decorative box. Everything here, but the white box was bought at Target. 
💙
Have a wonderful weekend!

Hi Everyone! Hope you had a wonderful Christmas. I Hi Everyone! Hope you had a wonderful Christmas. It was low key for us, as it was just my husband and I. We had dinner at my daughters house on Christmas Eve. That was nice. 
🎄
I am sharing my last view of my living room before I take down my Christmas decor. I will leave some of the winter type greens, but I think I’m going to add some blues. I have always liked blue after the holidays. It just gives the room a light and clean look.
🎄
I want to say sorry for lack of posting. It’s just so time consuming engaging. I hate spending countless hours on my phone. It has made me physically lazy and it hurts my eyes. I have put on so much weight because all I do is sit. I really need to change this habit. Anyway! I hope you have a wonderful day!!!
