Ingredients

1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
¾ cup white sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
⅓ cup vegetable oil
⅓ cup milk
1 egg
½ teaspoon almond extract
1 cup fresh pitted and quartered sweet cherries
1 tablespoon white sugar

Directions

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a muffin tin with paper liners.
Mix flour, 3/4 cup sugar, baking powder, and salt together in a bowl.
Whisk oil, milk, egg, and almond extract together in a small bowl. Pour into flour mixture; stir gently until incorporated. Fold cherries into the batter.
Spoon batter into the muffin cups, filling each 2/3 of the way full. Sprinkle 1 tablespoon sugar on top.
Bake muffins in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 20 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool.

Cook's Note:

If you're not using paper liners, spray the muffin tin with non-stick cooking spray.
