For crust: Blend both flours, sugar, and salt in processor until just combined. Add butter and shortening. Using on/off turns, process until mixture resembles coarse meal. Add milk. Using on/off turns, process until moist clumps form. Gather dough into ball; divide into 2 pieces, 1 slightly larger than the other. Flatten larger piece into disk and smaller piece into rectangle. Wrap each in plastic; chill 1 hour. (Can be made 1 day ahead. Keep chilled.) For filling: Preheat oven to 375°F. Place apples on large rimmed baking sheet; toss with 3 tablespoons sugar, 2 tablespoons butter, and lemon juice. Roast until apples are tender, stirring occasionally, about 45 minutes. Transfer to large bowl. Stir in cherries, brown sugar, and vanilla. Cool completely. Butter 9-inch glass pie dish. Roll out dough disk on floured surface to 12-inch round. Transfer to pie dish; trim overhang to 1/2 inch. Spoon filling into crust. Roll out dough rectangle on floured surface to 11x6-inch rectangle. Cut lengthwise into 8 strips. Arrange 4 strips across pie, spacing evenly. Place remaining 4 strips across first 4 strips, forming lattice pattern. Fold dough overhang over ends of strips; crimp edge. Brush strips and edge with 1 tablespoon butter. Bake until pie is golden and filling is bubbling, covering edge with foil if browning too quickly, about 40 minutes. Cool 45 minutes. Dust pie with powdered sugar.

Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. In a large mixing bowl, combine cherries and apple slices. In a small bowl, stir together sugar, flour and cinnamon. Pour over fruit mixture; toss to blend. Let stand 15 minutes. Turn fruit mixture into pastry-lined 9-inch pie pan; dot with butter. Cover with top crust which has slits cut in it; seal and flute. Bake in a preheated 425 degree F. oven 40 to 50 minutes, or until edge is golden brown and apples are tender.

Make filling: Peel, halve, and core apples and cut into 1/4-inch slices. In a large bowl toss apples with granulated sugar, dried cherries, dried cranberries, or raisins, lemon juice, cinnamon, and 2 tablespoons flour. In a small bowl mix together with fingertips brown sugar, butter, and remaining 2 tablespoons flour. Make pastry dough: In a large bowl stir together flour and salt. With a pastry blender or fingertips blend in shortening, blending until mixture resembles coarse meal. Add cold water, 1 tablespoon at a time, tossing to incorporate until mixture forms a dough. On a work surface smear dough in several forward motions with heel of hand to develop the gluten in flour and make dough easier to work with. Scrape dough together to form a ball and halve, flattening halves to 1-inch-thick disks. Wrap 1 disk in plastic wrap and reserve. Roll other disk into an 11-inch round and fit into a 9-inch pie plate (1-quart capacity), leaving 3/4-inch overhang. Spoon apple mixture into pastry and top with brown sugar mixture. Cover filling loosely with plastic wrap. Preheat oven to 350°F. Halve reserved dough. On a lightly floured surface roll 1 half into a very thin 11-inch round and with a fluted pastry wheel cut round into 1 3/4-inch-wide strips. Repeat procedure with remaining dough. Weave dough strips in a closed lattice pattern over pie and trim lattice edges flush with rim of pie plate. Roll overhanging dough from bottom pastry up over edge of lattice top and crimp decoratively. Brush lattice top with milk and sprinkle with sugar. Put sheet of foil on lower rack of oven. Bake pie in middle of oven 1 hour and 15 minutes, or until top is golden and filling is bubbling. Cool pie on rack and serve warm or at room temperature.

To prepare the crust, put the whole-wheat pastry flour, all-purpose flour, granulated sugar and salt in the bowl of a food processor and pulse 3 times to combine. Add the butter and pulse about 12 times, until you get a pebbly course texture. In a small bowl combine the buttermilk and ice water. Add the buttermilk-water mixture and pulse 3 to 5 times more to combine. Pat the dough into a 4-inch round and wrap in plastic wrap. Place in the freezer for 10 minutes, or make ahead and refrigerate for up to 1 day. In the meantime, preheat the oven to 425 degrees F, and prepare the filling. Core the apples and cut them into 1/4-inch slices. In a large bowl toss the apple slices with the lemon juice. Add the dried cherries then sprinkle in the cornstarch, brown sugar and cinnamon and toss until the apples are evenly coated. Set aside. On a lightly floured surface, roll the chilled dough into a large circle about 9 inches in diameter. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper, and draping the dough over the rolling pin, transfer it to the prepared baking sheet. If the dough breaks, patch it up with your fingers. Arrange the apple mixture in a mound in the center on the dough, leaving a 1 to 2-inch border. Fold the border over the filling. It will only cover the filling partially and does not need to be even. Bake the pie at 425 degrees F for 15 minutes, and then reduce the oven temperature to 350 degrees F, keeping the pie in the oven all the while, and bake for another 40 minutes, until the apples are tender and the crust is golden brown. In a small bowl stir together the honey and boiling water to make a glaze. When the pie is done remove it from the oven and brush the honey glaze all over the top of the fruit and crust. Transfer to a plate to cool slightly. Cut into 6 wedges and serve warm or at room temperature.
