Steps:
- Heat the oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Tip the syrup from the cherries and the jam into a saucepan. Boil for 10-15 mins until the liquid has reduced by half and is thick and syrupy, and add the cherries to the pan. Pour into a baking dish, roughly 18 x 25cm, then set aside.
- In a large bowl, mix the butter, sugar, eggs, flour, almonds, almond extract and a pinch of salt with an electric whisk until combined. Dollop the sponge mixture over the cherries and spread to a smooth layer, trying not to disturb the cherries underneath too much. Scatter over the flaked almonds, then bake for 45 mins until a skewer inserted into the sponge layer comes out clean. Leave to cool for 5 mins, then dust with icing sugar and serve with cream or, better yet, custard.

TRADITIONAL BAKEWELL PUDDING RECIPE
When is a Bakewell Tart not a Bakewell Tart is a question often asked? When it is a Bakewell Pudding. I can say that even in Bakewell, the town of origin for the tart and pudding, opinion is divided and no doubt whatever I say, someone will argue it is the other. One of the easiest ways to differentiate is a Bakewell Pudding is made with puff pastry and the Bakewell Tart, shortcrust. Bakewell is in the picturesque Peak District of Derbyshire. Throughout the town there are Bakewell Tart, or Bakewell Pudding shops, all claiming to be the one and the original. It's quite funny. It is so easy to make a Bakewell pudding. The pudding makes a delicious dessert and though it can be eaten as an afternoon treat, usually that will be a Bakewell Tart. Serve the pudding hot or slightly warm to enjoy the full almondy flavour. Note: The filling of this tart contains no flour instead uses ground almonds.
