Roasted Cherries

with sour cream and hazelnuts

Preheat the oven to 400°F [200°C].

In a medium bowl, combine the vinegar, olive oil, honey, salt, and a little pepper. Stir with a fork to combine. Add the cherries and toss well to coat. Transfer the cherries to a small parchment paper-lined rimmed baking sheet, reserving the remaining dressing in the bowl.

Roast the cherries until the juices are running and the flesh has mostly collapsed, 18 to 20 minutes. Remove and let cool slightly.

Carefully transfer the cherries to a serving bowl, shifting them largely to one side of the bowl. Drizzle with a little of the reserved dressing. On the free side of the bowl, dollop the sour cream. Sprinkle the fruit and cream with the hazelnuts and serve.
