Preheat oven to 350°

In a small mixing bowl, beat egg and then add orange juice. Add to flour mixture and stir until incorporated.
Add chopped cherries and pecans. Stir.
Using a 1" cookie scoop, drop each cookie onto an ungreased cookie sheet 2" apart.
Bake for 11-13 minutes or until bottoms just start to brown. Remove from oven and place on wire rack to cool.
