Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan to prevent sticking. (5 minutes)

02

Step
3 mins

In a large bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar, vegetable oil, and almond extract until well combined and slightly emulsified. This creates a smooth base for your brownie batter. (3 minutes)

03

Step
5 mins

In a separate bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, unsweetened cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. Sifting ensures that the dry ingredients are evenly distributed and prevents lumps in your batter. (5 minutes)

04

Step
5 mins

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can result in tough brownies. (5 minutes)

05

Step
3 mins

Gently fold in half of the pitted sour cherries until evenly distributed throughout the batter. Then, fold in the remaining cherries, being careful not to crush them. (3 minutes)

06

Step
2 mins

Pour the brownie batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it evenly. (2 minutes)

07

Step
30 mins

Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs attached. The brownies should spring back slightly when gently touched. (30 minutes)

08

Step
1 hrs

Let the brownies cool completely in the pan before cutting them into squares. This allows the flavors to meld and the texture to set. (60 minutes)

For an extra layer of decadence, consider adding chocolate chips or chunks to the batter.
If using frozen cherries, be sure to thaw them completely and drain any excess liquid to prevent soggy brownies.
To achieve a fudgier texture, slightly underbake the brownies. They will continue to set as they cool.
Store leftover brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
