To make Fresh Cherry Cake with a hint of Cinnamon, you will need the following ingredients:
Preheat the oven to 160 °C. Lightly grease and 20cm round baking cake tin, about 5cm deep.
In a bowl, mix the flour, cinnamon and caster sugar.
Make a well in the center and add the egg, milk, melted butter and whisk with a wooden spoon or electric beater until mixture is thick and smooth.
Pour the mixture, evenly, into the tin. Remove the stalks and stones from the cherries and scatter them over the top of the mixture. Gently press them into the batter.
In a bowl, combine the flour, cinnamon, caster sugar and butter and using your fingers, rub the mix together to form a crumble-like mixture with pea-sized pieces. Sprinkle the crumble over the top of the cherries.
Bake for 30-35 minutes until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove from the oven and leave in the baking tin until cool enough to touch. Remove the cake from the tin and allow to cool on a wire rack until completely cold, before slicing and serving.
