Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×9-inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.

In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, almond flour, baking powder, and salt. Set this mixture aside.

In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter and granulated sugar together using an electric mixer on medium speed. Continue beating until the mixture is light and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes.

Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Then mix in the vanilla and almond extracts until fully combined.

Gradually add the dry flour mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just incorporated. Avoid overmixing to ensure a tender texture.

Gently fold the chopped cherries and sliced almonds into the batter using a spatula. This will help to distribute the fruit and nuts evenly throughout the bars.

Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it evenly across the surface with a spatula.

Bake the bars in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until they are lightly golden on top and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

Once baked, remove the pan from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Once cool enough to handle, transfer the bars to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing them into squares.

Enjoy your Cherry Almond Bars at room temperature, or you can store them for later!
