Instructions

1. Separate eggs. Beat the egg white with the 2nd half of the sugar until creamy and set aside.
2. Beat the egg yolks with half of the sugar, mineral water and a pinch of salt until frothy. Then stir in the oil and the other ingredients, except for the cherries, to form a smooth batter. Now carefully fold in the egg whites, but do not stir too vigorously.
3. Spread the dough on a baking sheet or round shape. (Grease very lightly beforehand or line with baking paper). Finally, distribute the well-drained cherries on the dough.
4. Bake in the oven at 200 ° C (top / bottom heat) or 175 ° (convection) for about 45 minutes.
5. After cooling, dust with powdered sugar as desired.
6. The cake tastes lukewarm too!
7. Ground nuts can also be used instead of wholemeal flour. But since these are very expensive at the moment, I decided on this variant.
