My grandmother had talked about her cherry soup recipe for years, so when I received some of our state's famous Door County cherries, I just had to try it. My family liked it so well that I froze several quarts so we could enjoy it all winter!

METHOD:

TIME: Prep: 10 min. Cook: 30 min.

Ingredients:

  • SOUP:
  • 4 cups fresh, frozen or canned red tart pitted cherries
  • 2 cups water
  • 1/4 to 1-1/4 cups sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • DUMPLINGS:
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • Dash salt
  • 1 cup milk

Directions:

In large saucepan, place the cherries, water, sugar and cinnamon. Bring to a boil. Cook for 15 minutes or until cherries until tender. Adjust sugar, if necessary, depending on tartness of cherries.

  • Re: Cherry Soup

    I am not a huge dessert fan and very seldom do I even bother with making one. When I saw the picture of this and read the recipe I was anxious to give it a try. I served it as part of our Christmas dinner and it was a great hit. Everyone loved it and and asked for a copy of the recipe. This is something that I will make again!
