Ingredients

1 cup superfine sugar* (known as Baker’s or caster sugar), divided

2 tsps vanilla extract
6 large eggs
1/4 tsp table salt
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 cups whole sweet cherries, pits removed
2 cups fresh mixed berries, raspberries and blueberries (I use raspberries and blueberries)
confectioners' sugar for dusting
whipped cream (optional)

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
Place eight, 1 cup (8 oz.) capacity, strong heat proof dishes onto a baking sheet and into the oven to preheat.
Remove eight tablespoons of the superfine sugar from the 1 cup of sugar and set aside.
1 cup superfine sugar*
Meanwhile, in a large pouring vessel, whisk together the milk, the remaining sugar, vanilla, eggs, salt and flour.
2-1/2 cups whole milk, 2 tsps vanilla extract, 6 large eggs, 1/4 tsp table salt, 2 cups all-purpose flour
Remove the heated dishes from the oven and divide the cherries and berries evenly between them.

Sprinkle with the sugar that was set aside, one tablespoon per dish, and evenly ladle the egg mixture over the fruit.
Quickly return to the oven and bake the individual dishes on a baking sheet for 25 to 35 minutes, or until the center is no longer runny and dishes are puffed up and golden brown. You will need to watch your oven as cooking times will vary depending on your oven.
Dust with powdered sugar and serve with a dollop of sweet whipped cream. Enjoy!

Notes

*Superfine Sugar: You can purchase superfine sugar in the baking aisle or online, or make your own in a food processor. To make it, process regular granulated sugar until it’s fine but not powdery. The processing time will depend on the amount of sugar you add to the food processor at once.
