This Cherry Almond Coffee Cake has been a family favorite for years. I especially like to serve it on special occasions as part of a breakfast or brunch menu, although it really is perfect any time of the day. It consists of two layers of a rich almond flavored butter cake sandwiched together with a layer of sweet red canned cherries. A sprinkling of flaked or sliced almonds is the ideal garnish. You can serve this cake warm from the oven, at room temperature, or even cold .
In North America, we call this type of cake a Coffee Cake, although it may or may not contain coffee. The name refers to how the cake is served, that is, with a cup of coffee. While some Coffee Cakes contain yeast, this is a butter cake, so it is leavened with baking powder and baking soda. Its rich flavor and texture comes from adding sour cream to the batter, although you could use plain yogurt.
The cake has a middle layer of Cherry Pie Filling, which is a canned mixture of sweet red pitted cherries that are packed in sweetened water and thickened with cornstarch. This recipe uses 1 cup (300 grams), which is half of a 21 ounce can (595 grams) of Cherry Pie Filling, although you can use more if you want a thicker layer of cherries. Any leftover pie filling can be frozen. But don t feel you have to use cherry pie filling as you can also use a 10 ounce (280 gram) jar of drained Morello Cherries. Or you could use cranberry sauce or even your favorite jam or preserve.
