Polish-Style Yogurt Cherry Cake
  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Whisk 1 cup sugar, flour, baking powder, and baking soda in a mixing bowl until evenly combined.

  2. 2

    Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat. Cook and stir pitted cherries in the butter until tender, sprinkling them with 1 tablespoon of sugar, 8 to 10 minutes. Set aside.

  3. 3

    Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients, then pour in 1/2 cup olive oil, eggs, and yogurt; gently stir to form a soft dough. Spread the batter into a 9x12-inch baking dish. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon of olive oil (if using), and arrange the cherries on top.

  4. 4

    Bake in the preheated oven until the cake is set and golden on top and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 40 minutes.
