Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
How to bake bread with buckwheat flour? Prepare all ingredients. Heat the water to 40 degrees (at higher temperatures the yeast will die). Pour into a convenient small container, add yeast and sugar, stir and leave in a warm place for 10 minutes until the sugar dissolves and a yeast cap forms. You will learn all the intricacies of working with yeast by reading the article at the end of this recipe.

Step 2

Step 2
Pour the yeast mixture into a large bowl and add the vegetable oil. Sift buckwheat and wheat flour there and add salt. Start mixing the mixture with a spoon, then with your hands. Keep in mind that you may need a little less or more wheat flour — rely on the consistency of the dough. It should be thick enough to form a ball, but not too tight, otherwise the bread will not be soft. Read about the properties of flour in the article below the steps.

Step 3

Step 3
Place the dough on the work surface and knead well with your hands for at least 10 minutes. No more flour will be needed. The dough will behave a little unusually due to buckwheat flour, which does not contain gluten. Form the dough into a log, wrap it in film and leave in a warm place for 1 hour.

Step 4

Step 4
Knead the risen dough and knead it with your hands into a thin rectangular layer. We will make a loaf of bread.

Step 5

Step 5
Roll the dough from the short edge into a log. Protect the edges and make transverse cuts with a knife at a slight angle at a distance of 2-3 cm from each other.

Step 6

Step 6
Place the dough in a baking dish, cover with cling film and leave to rise for another 30 minutes.

Step 7

Step 7
Place the risen bread in an oven preheated to 180 degrees and bake for 30-40 minutes. The times are approximate, please be guided by the operating characteristics of your equipment. Read more about how ovens work in the article at the end of this recipe.
