Love the idea of this bread. But the measurements seem off for me. 120g of buckwheat flour left me with a watery mix. Have added extra flour, enough to bring the mix together and will see how it comes out of the oven. Can you give me an idea of how many cups of flour you use? Many thanks!
Hi Rowena. it´s 1 cup flour, 1 1/4 cup water + 1/4 cup oil.
And the dough is watery no worries after baking its a soft bread.
Enjoy it
How is your bread so dark? Isn’t buckwheat grey?
Hi Ann,
I use regular buckwheat flour.
The bread is a lil crumbly because we don’t have the glue protein of wheat flour.

Hi there,
This sounds delicious, and I can’t wait to try it! Is this loaf suitable for freezing?
Hi Diana,
yes that must work, you can freeze it.
Greetings

There is a huge difference between gram and cup measures. Gram is much bigger. I went with grams as it was your first listed. In the oven now. Hope it turns out.
Hi Kathleen,
yes, I prefer gram, its for me a more accurate measurement.
Kathrin
This looks so good! What a great way to enjoy a fall bread without the gluten!
Thanks for sharing! Does it freeze well?
Made this for the first time today, and it came out delicious! However, I did have to bake it for over an hour before the knife came out without batter on it.
I used a metal loaf pan and measured ingredients by weight, and I have a separate oven thermometer which said my oven was at the correct temp. The only alteration I made was to reduce the water a bit, since I live in a very damp climate, and my flours are often not as thirsty as a recipe thinks. I did use optional 2T of syrup (I used maple), but I agree, the fruit makes it sweet enough it could be omitted.
Any tips for when to slice it to best avoid crumbling? I let it cool entirely in the baking paper, and the ends sliced well, but the middle fell apart a bit. Or possibly that was due to being repeatedly stabbed in the center while baking. 😆
Thanks for the recipe! I will be making it again, I think.
