Has this recipe given you a hankering for cherry bakewell tart? How about this puff pastry number, laced with amaretto?
Ingredients
- 150g frozen cherries (or fresh pitted cherries if in season)
- 100g almonds
- 1 vanilla pod, split (optional)
- 4 tbsp light brown sugar
- 700ml brandy
You’ll also need
- 1 litre jar
Method
- Put the cherries, almonds, vanilla (if using) and sugar in the jar, then pour over the brandy. Seal and leave to infuse for at least a week, giving it the occasional shake.
- Give it a taste – if you’re happy with the flavour, strain it back into the bottle using a sieve and funnel. You can add more sugar if you want it sweeter, or leave it to infuse for longer, tasting it each week until you’re happy with the strength.
