Delicious Gluten-Free Buckwheat and Millet Bread

I’m not allergic to gluten but since I feel so much better when I don’t eat it I tried many great, healthy, and gluten-free recipes. Everybody asks about this recipe and can’t believe it’s made from millet and buckwheat; even picky kids like it. It’s really easy and healthy, give it a try! You can add flax seeds, sun-dried tomatoes, olives, and whatever seeds and nuts you like to this bread.

Step: 1

Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Generously grease a loaf pan with butter.

Step: 2

Grind buckwheat and millet in a food processor until very fine. Add sunflower seeds, chia seeds, baking soda, and salt; pulse in the processor until incorporated. With the processor on, slowly pour buttermilk into buckwheat mixture until a thick dough forms. Stir prunes into dough, transfer dough to prepared loaf pan, and cover the loaf pan with parchment paper.

Step: 3

Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 390 degrees F (199 degrees C), remove parchment paper from the loaf pan, and continue baking until bread is crusty but still soft on the inside, about 45 minutes more.

The quality of the flour could make a real difference to your bread. Different makers do vary. Extra-strong or Canadian flours, which are naturally higher in gluten, may give you a best rise than standard dough flours – especially if you’re make wholemeal bread , which doesn’t always rise as well as clear bread.

To made this in a breadmaker , add all the ingredients to your breadmaker and follow the makers instructions.

A bread first rising can be done in the fridge 24 hours . This slows down the time it takes to rise to double its size, giving it a deeper flavour. It’s also a great limit , as you can start it yesterday , then clear it off the next day.
