Crumbly and light gluten free "shortbread" |
This recipe makes 16 rectangular pieces, using a standard rectangular baking tray:
500g unroasted whole buckwheat grains (or use buckwheat flour but the texture will be different)
200g gour/ rapadura (evaporated cane juice with the goodness left in)
180ml coconut oil
50ml water
a handful each of: desiccated coconut, sultanas, cashew pieces (optional, or choose your own flavours, like chocolate chip or apricot, depending on what your dietary requirements are).
- Grind the buckwheat (we use an electric spice/ seed grinder and process a little at a time) to the texture of fine oatmeal.
- Melt the gour and oil with the water over a gentle heat, mixing well. Be sure to scrape the bottom of the pan to prevent the gour sticking.
- Remove from heat and stir in the buckwheat together with whatever other ingredients you are adding.
- Bake in the centre of an oven preheated to 175-180C for about 20 minutes, taking care not to over- brown the top, and cut into rectangles while still warm.
