Makes 4
300g cherries, stoned
50ml cold water
1 tbsp vanilla bean paste
65g unsalted butter, softened
90g caster sugar
100g plain flour
30g peanut halves
4 x 100g oven dishes
In a large saucepan, combine the cherries, water, vanilla paste, 30g of the butter and 50g of the sugar, and bring to the boil. Simmer for 10 mins, then transfer to the dishes.
Preheat the oven to 200°C/180°C fan/gas mark 6. In a large bowl, rub the remaining butter into the remaining sugar and the flour, then mix in the peanuts. Top the cherry mixture in each pot with the peanut topping and place on an oven tray.
Bake for 15 mins until the cherries are bubbling, and the topping is golden.
