1 1/2 cups unbleached flour 3/4 cup whole wheat pastry flour 3 tablespoons sugar 2 teaspoons baking powder 1/2 teaspoon baking soda 1 whole egg white 3/4 cup unsweetened applesauce 2 tablespoons unsweetened applesauce 1/3 cup dried cherries skim milk or 1 egg white -- beaten Combine the flours, sugars, baking powder, and baking soda, and stir to mix well. Stir in the egg white and just enough of the applesauce to form a stiff dough. Stir in the dried cherries. Form the dough into a ball, and turn onto a lightly floured surface. With floured hands, pat the dough into a 7" circle. Coat a baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray. Place the dough on the sheet, and use a sharp floured knife to cut it into 12 wedges. Pull the wedges out slightly to leave a 1/2" space between them. Brush the tops lightly with skim milk or beaten egg white. Bake at 375F for about 20 minutes, or until lightly browned. Transfer to a serving plate, and serve hot with cherry fruit spread or apple jelly.
