Cherry recipes

Juicy, ripe cherries are a true summer highlight. They don’t stick around very long, so make the most of this seasonal treasure in our delicious cherry recipes.

Cherries have a short season, typically from late June until early August. Keep an eye out for them in supermarkets, at farmers’ markets and at roadside stalls in cherry-growing areas like Kent. Once you’ve tracked down a few punnets of glossy cherries, have a go at making some of the recipes below.

Make the most of juicy cherries with dessert ideas including cherry pie, clafoutis, cherry ripple ice cream and cheesecake. This collection mainly showcases recipes for fresh fruit, but we’ve also sneaked in a spiked cheesecake using black cherries from a jar (amazing), plus a couple of dried and glacé fruit options too.

Stone fruit fans should check out our peach recipes and apricot recipes for more tempting ideas, too.
