- 1 teaspoon baking soda

- 1⁄4 cup 4 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cut into 1/2-inchdice

- 3⁄4 cup dried cranberries
- 3⁄4 cup chopped walnuts (optional)
- 1 1⁄4 cups buttermilk (not Greek) or 3/4 cup plain yogurt 1/2 cup milk (not Greek)
directions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F Lightly grease an 8 1/2" x 4 1/2" loaf pan.

- Work in the butter until the mixture is crumbly.
- Stir in the cheese, cranberries, and walnuts.
- Mix the buttermilk and egg, and gently stir into the dry ingredients.
- Scoop the dough into the pan, spreading it to the edges.
- Bake the bread for 65 to 75 minutes, tenting it with foil for the final 10 to 15 minutes of baking, until a tester inserted into the center comes out clean. Its internal temperature at the center will be about 200°F.
- Remove the bread from the oven, and loosen the edges with a table knife. Wait 5 minutes, then gently turn it out onto a rack to cool. Don't slice while hot; it'll crumble.
