Ground Cherry Bread

  • 1

Ingredients

  • INGREDIENTS:
  • 2 cups flour
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1 cup milk (I used skim)
  • 1 egg
  • 1 stick of butter OR 1/2 cup margarine (I’ve used both)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1 cup mashed ground cherries (and a little pineapple if you want)
  • whipped cream cheese (or regular) for serving

Preparation

Step 1

Mix together milk and sugar. Add in egg and other ingredients. The batter will be a little runny.

Bake in greased loaf pan at 350°F for about 45 minutes, or in greased muffin pan for about 15 minutes. Cake tester or toothpick should come
out clean.

The first time I made it, we had a few slices of leftover pineapple from making my dad’s birthday pineapple upsidedown cake. I’d heard so many times that ground cherries were pineappley that I blended some of those in as well. Tasted great! Serve when still warm with some whipped cream cheese on top and it’s amazing. It’s good room temperature, but I found after taking some for lunch that it’s also good cold, which is kind of interesting.
