1 ingredient buckwheat bread

I have been procrastinating this recipe for ages. The reason is that I tried once and completely failed - all because I forgot to soak my buckwheat grouts. But not this time. This time I made everything right, and the result is well worth it.

To begin, this recipe is easy - it only calls for one ingredient (buckwheat), plus water. But it is worth to say you will need almost 2 days to get it done properly.

Before we jump to the recipe, here are some reasons why this bread is so good for you. Buckwheat, despite of the name, is not a wheat and does not contain gluten. So this one is safe for anyone with gluten sensitivities. It is very low fat, as there are no oils added, low salt and low glycemic index, meaning it won’t cause a huge spike on your blood sugar levels. And, mostly, because you are using the whole grain, it is super high in fibers and minerals. It is also, naturally very tasty!

So let’s jump to it!

Ingredients

  • 350 g of buckwheat groats
