Ingredients

Cake

  • 2 cups sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 teaspoon almond extract
  • 1 cup almond milk
  • ½ cup canola oil

Instructions

Cake

  • Heat the oven to 350°F.
  • Mix the sugar, eggs, almond milk, and canola oil until thoroughly combined.
  • Add the flour, salt, and baking powder on top of the previous ingredients. Give these dry ingredients a little stir to combine them, and then mix with the wet ingredients until combined.

  • Pour the batter into a greased 8” x 10” cake pan.
  • Bake 10 minutes at 350°F.

Topping

  • While the cake is baking, in a small food processor, chop the cherries and pecans.
  • Add the canola oil and brown sugar and mix until combined.
  • Sprinkle the cherry-nut mixture over the top of the cake, and return it to the oven to bake another 25 minutes or so, until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
  • Serve warm.
