Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
How to make bread from green buckwheat without yeast? Prepare food for him. Green buckwheat is buckwheat that has not undergone industrial roasting, due to which all the beneficial substances of the cereal are preserved. Thatʼs why itʼs green. Instead of chia seeds, you can use ground flax seeds. In addition to the main composition, you can add any nuts, seeds and dried fruits to the bread. I use sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds and raisins.

Step 2

Step 2
Rinse the buckwheat in a sieve under running cool water. Fill it with clean cold water and leave for 3 hours to swell. You can leave it for a longer time; for me it soaked all night.

Step 3

Step 3
Place the swollen buckwheat on a sieve and rinse thoroughly again — green buckwheat becomes a little slimy when soaked. Leave the buckwheat in the sieve for a while to drain excess liquid.

Step 4

Step 4
Pour three tablespoons of water over the chia seeds and leave for 5-10 minutes.

Step 5

Step 5
Grind the buckwheat in any available way — blender, stationary or submersible, chopper, food processor. Do not make the mass completely homogeneous — let small inclusions of buckwheat grains remain — the bread will turn out more structural.

Step 6

Step 6
Add swollen chia seeds, soda, salt, vinegar and oil to the buckwheat mass. Stir.

Step 7

Step 7
Add the rest of the additives. If you took nuts and large dried fruits — prunes, dried apricots, dates — then chop them first. It is better to soak hard dried fruits in boiling water for a short time.

Step 8

Step 8
Stir the mixture.

Step 9

Step 9
Take a suitable baking dish. Lubricate it with olive oil. If it is silicone like mine, then there is no need to lubricate it. Place the dough in it. My mold is 20*7 cm in size. This size is too big, the bread turned out very low. For this form, either double the amount of products, or take a smaller form.

Step 10

Step 10
Bake the bread in the oven preheated to 200°C for about an hour. It will brown on top. Focus on your oven. Mine took 45 minutes. Remove the finished bread from the mold, cool, and only then cut it.
