Ingredients

  • 2 cups buckwheat groats (or more, as needed)

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Add the buckwheat groats to a high-speed blender and secure the lid. Blend until the groats are pulverized into a very fine texture like flour. This may take up to 2 minutes. You may use more than 2 cups if you need more flour, but don't use less than 2 cups to ensure an even texture.
  2. If you don't have a high-speed blender, you can use a coffee grinder instead, but you'll need to work with just a 1/4 cup of groats at a time.
  3. Use the buckwheat flour right away in your favorite buckwheat recipes, or store it in an airtight container in your pantry until you're ready to use it. It should last for at least 3 months, or possibly longer if you store it in the fridge.

Notes

  • Nutrition information is for roughly 1/2 cup of buckwheat flour. This information is automatically calculated and is just an estimate, not a guarantee.
  • Note: 1 cup of buckwheat groats = roughly 1 cup of buckwheat flour. Use a food scale when measuring your flour for the most accurate results in baking.
  • Buckwheat groats are hulled buckwheat seeds. Using hulled seeds makes the flour taste better for baking. You can buy buckwheat groats at your local grocery store in the health food or gluten-free section, or order it on Amazon. (affiliate link)
