Ingredients




2 cups fresh ground cherry, husks removed
2 tablespoons slivered almonds
3 eggs
1/2 cup sugar
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1/2 cup all-purpose flour, sifted
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup whole milk
1/2 cup whipping cream
3/4 teaspoon of almond extract
1 1/2 teaspoons of vanilla extract
Powdered sugar for dusting, if desired

Preparation

1 Preheat the oven to 350F. Butter and lightly flour one 9x9-inch or two 8-inch round baking dish. Scatter the ground cherries and slivered almonds in the dish. 2 Whisk the eggs, sugars, salt, and flour together until smooth. 3 Add the milk, whipping cream, almond extract, and vanilla extract. Whisk until smooth. Pour into the baking dish. 4 Bake for 40-50 minutes or until lightly browned and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. The finished batter will jiggle slightly when it's pull out of the oven which is normal. Place on a wire rack to cool. The flognarde will have puffed up quite a bit and will deflate while cooling. When cool dust the flognarde with powdered sugar if desired.
