Instructions: Beat the eggs and sugar together, slowly add the flour then the yeast, mix well. Add enough milk to make a batter about the same consistency as a pancake batter (not too thin).

Leave batter to sit for 15 minutes.

Remove stems and stones from cherries.

Butter a flan dish and pour in the batter. Arrange the cherries on top.

Bake in a hot oven 190C/380F for about 35 minutes until golden brown.

Dust with sugar and serve hot or cold with cream and/or ice-cream.

Ideal summer dessert when fresh cherries are available.
