Nostalgia Sour Cream and Cherry Pie

Steps

• 1
  Whisk the eggs thoroughly with the sugar until frothy (don't skimp on time, as this will make the finished cake beautifully tall and airy).
• 2
  To the egg-sugar mixture, add the sour cream and grated lemon zest, then gradually fold in the flour mixed with baking powder. For this mixing, do not use an electric whisk; just fold it together with a spoon.
• 3
  Pour the prepared mixture into a baking tray lined with baking paper, generously top with pitted cherries (or any fruit you desire), and bake in a preheated oven at 175°C on convection mode for 35-40 minutes.
• 4
  As soon as you take the finished cake out, immediately brush its top with melted butter and let it cool.
• 5
  During baking, place a heat-resistant bowl filled with water at the bottom of the oven to create steam.
• 6
  Baking time may vary by oven; perform a skewer test. You can also make the pie with other berries.
