This naturally fermented buckwheat bread is made with just three ingredients—soaked raw buckwheat groats, water, and salt—yet it transforms into a beautifully airy, subtly tangy loaf with a soft, spongy texture. It’s a nourishing, gluten-free, and vegan option for anyone seeking a simple, gut-friendly alternative to traditional bread. Once blended and left to ferment, the batter becomes naturally leavened, creating a light rise without the need for yeast or baking powder. This bread pairs well with savory spreads, nut butters, or sliced avocado, or serve it along side a warming soup for dinner.

Ingredients
3 cups buckwheat groats
1½ cups water
1 teaspoons sea salt
