  • In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
  • Alternately add the dry ingredients and the milk to the butter mixture, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
  • Gently fold in the pitted cherries.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and spread evenly.
