Step-by-step method

At a glance

You're making a delightful two-part bake with a coconut-cardamom crust and silky cherry custard filling. The trickiest part is getting your custard mixture (which starts out runny) to set perfectly during baking, but the egg yolks and cornstarch do all the work for you. Altogether, you're looking at less than two hours from start to finish, with a good chunk being hands-off chilling and baking time.

    Make the dough

    Mix all the dough ingredients together and knead by hand until everything comes together. Wrap in plastic wrap and chill in the fridge for about half an hour to firm up a little.

  2. 2/5

    Prepare the filling

    Combine all the filling ingredients in a tall bowl and whisk thoroughly - the mixture will be quite runny. Don't worry, though: thanks to the egg yolks and starch, it will turn into a proper custard and set during baking.
