	For Decoration:
2 tbsp	sugar or cinnamon sugar (½ tbsp cinnamon + 1½ tbsp sugar)

Instructions

Preheat oven to Gas Mark 4, 350°F, 180°C.

Grease a 8 inch 20cm square baking dish or an oval one about 11×9 inches (approx. 27x22cm).

Place the cherries in the dish and sprinkle with cornflour.

Mix together in a bowl or jug 115g sugar, cherry juice and ¼ tsp of salt and pour over cherries. Set aside.

Sift together flour, baking powder, remaining salt and sugar into a large bowl. Rub in the butter or margarine until the texture resembles breadcrumbs. Add the nuts, if used, and blend well. Add milk and bring to a soft dough with a fork. Spoon dough evenly over cherries.

Sprinkle topping with 2 tbsp sugar or cinnamon sugar. Bake for 30-40 minutes until topping is well browned and the fruit is bubbling. You may need to protect the bottom of the oven with a baking tray to catch any overflow of fruit juices etc.

Serve immediately.
