Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Measure the flours, oats, baking soda, salt, and sugar into a large bowl. Mix well, then use a pastry cutter to cut the butter into the flour mixture until the butter is the size of small peas.
- Mix in the orange zest and cherries. Then stir in the buttermilk. Once the mixture forms a ball, dump it out onto a floured surface and knead several times to form a smooth ball. (If the dough is too dry to knead, add 1 -2 tablespoons of extra buttermilk.)
- Place the ball on the baking sheet and press down until it's a 2 1/2-inch thick disk. Mix the granola topping ingredients in a small bowl and sprinkle over the top. Then cut a shallow X in the top of the soda bread.
- Bake for 45-60 minutes, until golden and crusty. Check the top after 15 minutes. If the granola toppings start to turn too dark, cover loosely with a piece of foil and continue baking. Allow the soda bread to cool for 15 minutes before cutting.
