Original recipe (1X) yields 12 servings
1 cup white sugar
2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 tablespoon butter
2 cups pitted fresh sweet cherries
1 tablespoon white sugar
½ cup olive oil
4 large eggs
1 (6 ounce) container plain yogurt
1 tablespoon olive oil (Optional)
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Whisk 1 cup sugar, flour, baking powder, and baking soda in a mixing bowl until evenly combined.
Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat. Cook and stir pitted cherries in the butter until tender, sprinkling them with 1 tablespoon of sugar, 8 to 10 minutes. Set aside.
Form a well in the center of the dry ingredients, and pour in 1/2 cup olive oil, eggs, and yogurt; lightly stir the mixture to make a soft dough. Scrape batter into a 9x12-inch baking dish. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon of olive oil (if using), and top with cherries.
Bake in the preheated oven until cake is set and golden on top and a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean, about 40 minutes.
