1
Preheat oven to 350F.
2
In your souffle dish, brush with softened butter. Pour in 1/4 cup of sugar. Tip around dish coating with the sugar evenly. Dump out excess sugar.
3
Combine cherries with ground almonds. Put into the bottom of the dish.
4
In a small pot, warm 1 cup of milk. In a small bowl, whisk together 1/3 cup sugar, 1/3 cup milk, 1/3 cup flour.

Slowly pour flour mixture into the pot of warm milk. Whisk until thickened, pull off heat.

Stir in 2 Tbsp of butter. Cover for 15 minutes. Then, whisk in 4 egg yolks.

In a mixer with a whisk attachment (or using a hand mixer), whip the egg whites in a clean dry bowl until soft peaks form. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons sugar and continue whipping until stiff and glossy.
8
Take 1 cup of whipped whites and stir into flour/milk mixture. Fold this mixture gently in with the glossy whites.

Gently pour this over the cherries in the souffle dish. Smooth the top... and sprinkle with icing sugar.

Tips for the best results

Read through all the steps once before you start and measure out your ingredients first — it makes everything go more smoothly.
Preheat the oven fully and bake on the middle rack for the most even results.
Check for doneness a few minutes early — a toothpick in the center should come out with just a few moist crumbs.
Let it cool before slicing so it sets properly and holds its shape.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within a few days.

Variations & substitutions

Use a neutral oil or a plant-based spread in place of butter for a dairy-free version.
Brown sugar instead of white sugar adds a deeper, more caramel-like flavor.
Leave out the nuts to make it nut-free, or swap in seeds for a similar crunch.
A good 1:1 gluten-free flour blend works well if you need a gluten-free version.
