I had some bottled apples and frozen pie cherries. I was hungry for something with using them, but I didn't want to make a crust. I took a few recipies and came up with this one. Not too sweet and perfect with whipped cream.

Apple Cherry Cake

6 green apples, peeled and thinly sliced
2 cups pie cherries or 1 can pie cherry filling
brown sugar and cinnamon
1 cup flour
1 cup sugar
3 eggs
1/2 cup oil
1 tsp vanilla
1/4 tsp. almond extract
2 teaspoon baking powder
1 cup coconut
1 cup silvered almonds

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In greased 9X13 pan spread apples. Spread cherries on top. Sprinkle with brown sugar and cinnamon (some nutmeg might be nice too). In mixer combine flour, sugar, eggs, oil, vanilla, almond extract and baking powder. Pour over fruit. Top with coconut and almonds. Bake for 1 hour or until toothpick comes out clean.
