Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.

In a bowl, mix the eggs, 1/3 cup sugar, flour, salt, vanilla, and milk. If you don't have a hand mixer, try using a blender!

Pour a small amount of batter into a buttered pie pan or baking dish, about ¼ inch thick.

Bake in the oven for 7 to 10 minutes. The batter shouldn't be totally set but just about done.

Add the cherries and pomegranate arils on top of the cooked batter.

Pour the remaining 1/3 cup of sugar over the fruit.

Pour the remaining batter over the fruit and sugar mixture.

Bake for 40 to 60 minutes, or until set.

Let cool to lukewarm temperature.

Dust with powdered sugar; garnish with whipped cream and/or a mint sprig!
