Ingredients

• 2 cups Cherries (pitted, fresh or frozen)
• 1 cup Almond flour
• 0.5 cup Erythritol or low-carb sweetener
• 1 teaspoon Amaretto extract (sugar-free)
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.75 cup Heavy cream
• 0.25 cup Unsalted butter (melted)
• 0.5 teaspoon Baking powder
• 0.125 teaspoon Salt
• 2 tablespoons Sliced almonds (optional, for topping)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a small baking dish (approximately 8x8 inches) or 6 individual ramekins.

Step 2

In a medium-sized bowl, combine almond flour, erythritol, baking powder, and salt. Mix until well combined.

Step 3

In another bowl, whisk together the heavy cream, melted butter, amaretto extract, and vanilla extract.

Step 4

Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until a smooth batter forms.

Step 5

Spread half of the pitted cherries evenly across the bottom of the prepared baking dish or ramekins.

Step 6

Pour the batter over the cherries, spreading it evenly with a spatula.

Step 7

Scatter the remaining cherries on top of the batter, gently pressing them down slightly.

Step 8

If desired, sprinkle sliced almonds over the top for extra crunch and flavor.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 20–25 minutes, or until the dessert is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the batter comes out clean.

Step 10

Let the dessert cool for about 10 minutes before serving. Enjoy warm or at room temperature.
