Ingredients

• 21 oz canned cherry pie filling
• 0.5 cup granulated sugar
• 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 2 large eggs
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 0.5 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 cup milk
• 2 tablespoons powdered sugar (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a 9-inch pie dish.

Step 2

Spread the canned cherry pie filling evenly on the bottom of the greased pie dish.

Step 3

In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar and melted unsalted butter until well combined.

Step 4

Add the eggs and vanilla extract to the bowl, and whisk until the mixture is smooth and slightly frothy.

Step 5

In a separate bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt.

Step 6

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the milk, and mix until no lumps remain.

Step 7

Pour the batter evenly over the cherry pie filling in the pie dish.

Step 8

Place the pie dish on the middle rack of the preheated oven. Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Step 9

Let the pie cool for at least 15 minutes before slicing.

Step 10

If desired, sprinkle with powdered sugar for garnish before serving. Enjoy!
