No-knead Buckwheat Bread Recipe

Don’t let the idea of baking bread intimidate you. This recipe has only a few ingredients, requires no kneading, rising, fancy equipment nor technique.  

What is buckwheat bread?

Buckwheat is neither grass nor grain and is naturally fiber-rich and gluten-free. Putting aside all the amazing health benefits of eating this wholesome loaf, buckwheat bread has a complex nutty flavor unlike any other bread—particularly of the gluten-free variety. Chia seeds are a super-food and we use them to bind the bread instead of eggs, giving it the added bonus of being vegan, and oat milk replaces water to give it an extra rich flavor. This bread is best served warm with its golden-brown crust and chewy tender middle. But, it also freezes up nicely and can be used for next week’s sandwiches and toast.
