Buckwheat groats and water are all you need to make this incredibly easy fermented buckwheat bread. This yeast-free, vegan and gluten-free bread is incredibly easy to make, it’s soft and moist and healthy too! This is surely going to become your new favourite recipe!
Add the buckwheat to a large glass bowl and cover with water. Cover the bowl with a tea towel and set it aside on the counter for 12 hours.
Drain the water (but do not rinse) then add to a blender along with 250 grams of fresh water. Blend until a smooth batter forms. Pour into the cleaned bowl, cover with your cloth and leave for 24 hours.
Fold in some salt and seeds and then pour the batter into a 1lb loaft pan lined with grease-proof paper.
Preheat the oven to 180°C (160°C fan / 350°F) with the loaf in the oven and bake for 60 minutes. Insert a toothpick to check the doneness - it should come out clean. If there is still sticky dough on the toothpick, bake for a further 5 minutes.
Remove the bread from the tin and peel off the paper (careful, it's hot!) Leave the bread to cool on a wire cooling rack for at least 30 minutes before slicing!
