Buckwheat flour
Buckwheat flour is a gluten-free flour with a nutty flavour and relatively high in plant-based protein. It is often used as an alternative to wheat. Use it to make delicious pancakes, cakes or brownies!
What is buckwheat flour?
Buckwheat is technically a herb, but because its seeds resemble grains and are processed in a similar way, it is often included in this category. Once dried, the seeds of buckwheat are milled into buckwheat flour.
The benefits of buckwheat flour
The main advantage is that buckwheat flour is healthy. It contains a high amount of plant-based protein and is naturally gluten-free. Dishes made with buckwheat flour tend to keep you feeling full for longer, reducing the need for snacks. Another benefit is that it causes a slower rise in blood sugar levels, helping to prevent sudden hunger.
Buckwheat for bread and pancakes
Whole buckwheat is also used in breakfast cereals, as it is very nutritious due to its high carbohydrate content. As a flour, it is commonly used for baking pancakes and bread.
Order gluten-free buckwheat flour online
Because buckwheat is not actually a grain, it does not contain gluten. This makes buckwheat flour naturally gluten-free, provided it has not come into contact with flour from other grains. Otherwise, it may contain traces of gluten, which can still cause issues for people with gluten intolerance.
