Ingredients

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, and salt. Cut in the unsalted butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  2. Gradually add ice water, tossing with a fork until the dough forms a ball. Divide the dough in half and shape into two discs. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1 hour.
  3. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
  4. On a lightly floured surface, roll out one disc of dough to fit a 9-inch pie plate. Transfer the dough to the pie plate.
  5. In a large bowl, combine the cherries, granulated sugar, cornstarch, vanilla extract, and lemon juice. Pour the cherry filling into the pie crust.
  6. Roll out the remaining disc of dough and cut into strips. Create a lattice pattern over the cherry filling.
  7. In a small bowl, beat the egg with milk. Brush the egg wash over the lattice crust.
  8. Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly. Allow the pie to cool for at least 2 hours before serving.
