  • 1 24-oz. jar pitted sour cherries in light syrup, drained
  • ¼ cup sugar
  • 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar

  2. Combine sunflower seeds, buckwheat flour, sesame seeds, flaxseeds, cornstarch, salt, and 2 Tbsp. sugar in a medium bowl. Using your fingers, work butter into seed mixture until it comes together. Break up into small clumps and scatter over fruit; sprinkle remaining 1 Tbsp. sugar over.
