INGREDIENTS

• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1/4 cup granulated sugar
• 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1 teaspoon finely shredded orange peel
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 3 tablespoons butter or margarine
• 1/4 cup cold water
• 4 teaspoons cornstarch
• 1 16-ounce package frozen unsweetened pitted tart red cherries
• 3 cups thinly sliced apples (1 pound)
• 1 egg
• 1/3 cup fat-free milk

DIRECTIONS

• Preheat oven to 400°F. For biscuit topping, in a medium bowl stir together flour, 2 tablespoons of the granulated sugar, the baking powder, orange peel and 1/2 teaspoon of the cinnamon. Using a pastry blender, cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Set aside.
• For filling, in a medium saucepan stir together the cold water, cornstarch, the remaining 2 tablespoons granulated sugar and the remaining 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon; add frozen cherries. Cook and stir until thickened and bubbly. Stir in apple slices; heat through. Reduce heat; keep filling hot.
• In a small bowl stir together egg and milk. Add to biscuit topping mixture, stirring just until moistened. Transfer hot filling to a 2-quart square baking dish. Immediately spoon topping into 9 small mounds on filling. Bake for 18 to 20 minutes or until a wooden toothpick inserted near the center of a biscuit comes out clean. Serve warm.
