#190 cherry crostata

1 cup white flour
3/4 cup whole wheat white flour
1/4 cup sugar
1 egg plus one yolk
1/2 cup butter
pinch salt and baking powder
1/2 tsp vanilla
1/2 tsp lemon extract
~1/2 cup cherry preserves

Mix together (with hands) flour, sugar, baking powder, salt and butter. When well mixed add in egg, egg yolk, vanilla and lemon and mix another few minutes by hand. Set aside 1/3 of dough, spread the rest into the bottom of a pie pan, spread with enough preserves to coat well and then place pieces of remaining dough over the top. Refridgerate 30 mins and then bake at 350 for ~30 mins.
