Personal Notes:
This recipe appeared in the Spectator during cherry season and I ended up making a loaf and muffins. (It makes 12 muffins baked at 350F for 30 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean). It's a bit time-consuming pitting the cherries without a pitter, but I used a knife and did two cuts about the cherry and just dug the pit out. The loaves and muffins freeze beautifully in freezer bags.
