I made these cherry muffins one summer when I had an abundance of fresh cherries. My kids look forward to making them every summer now — they never last long!

  • ½ teaspoon salt

  • ⅓ cup vegetable oil

  • ⅓ cup milk

  • 1 large egg

  • ½ teaspoon almond extract

  • 1 cup fresh pitted and quartered sweet cherries

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.

  2. Mix flour, 3/4 cup sugar, baking powder, and salt together in a bowl.
