Doves FarmOrganic Wholemeal Buckwheat Flour
Doves Farm Organic Wholemeal Buckwheat Flour 1kg is a distinctive flour made from wholegrain buckwheat, bringing a nutty aroma and robust flavour to both sweet and savoury baking. Despite its name, buckwheat is not a type of wheat, and this wholemeal flour is naturally gluten free, making it a versatile choice for a range of dietary needs.
The texture of this organic buckwheat flour is slightly coarser than standard wheat flours, which helps add character and depth to pancakes, quick breads, flatbreads and batters. Its rich, earthy taste pairs well with honey, fruit and spices in sweet recipes, or with herbs, cheeses and vegetables in savoury dishes. Because it is wholemeal, it retains the full flavour and nutritional profile of the grain, appealing to home bakers and food lovers who enjoy ingredient driven cooking.

How does buckwheat flour differ from wheat flour?
Buckwheat flour comes from the seeds of the buckwheat plant rather than from a cereal grain. It has a naturally gluten free composition and a more pronounced nutty flavour, which gives baked goods a different texture and taste compared with wheat flour.
Can buckwheat flour be used in gluten free baking?
Yes. Because this buckwheat flour is inherently gluten free, it is useful in a range of gluten free recipes. It can be mixed with other gluten free flours and binders to improve texture in breads, cakes and biscuits.
Will buckwheat flour give a strong flavour to baked goods?
Buckwheat flour has a pronounced, earthy, nutty flavour. In sweet recipes it pairs particularly well with fruit and spices, while in savoury dishes it complements herbs, cheese and roasted vegetables.
