Himalayan Tartary Buckwheat Bread Recipe: Vegan, GF

I was super excited to try a basic Himalayan Tartary Buckwheat bread recipe with organic grains and seeds. Now it’s a top go-to along with Himalayan Tartary Buckwheat sourdough.

There’s nothing like a fresh loaf of homemade Himalayan Tartary Buckwheat bread to warm your kitchen and nourish your gut. It fills the house with that rich delicious smell of cozy home cooking.

A crackling fire on a cold night, cats on the sofa, rain coming down. The dog stretched lazily on the rug with kids running round with flour on their clothes.

But what makes it all the better is when foods are as excellent as the cook, which is exactly the case with this delicious Himalayan Tartary Buckwheat bread.

In fact it wasn’t long ago that Dr. Bland of Big Bold Health called Himalayan Tartary “the most immuneoactive, nutrient-dense plant yet discovered.” Which is scarcely hyperbole when you see its long list of bioactive compounds.

It rocks rutin, quercetin, luteolin, hesperidin, and diosmin, to name a few. It packs flavonols, polyphenols, prebiotics, vitamins, minerals, and both kinds of fiber. Not to mention a rare molecular compound that’s considered pretty rare (2-HOBA).

This recipe is vegan and gluten-free.

Instructions

• Combine yeast and 1/4 cup warm water in large bowl or strong mixer for 5 minutes until yeast is dissolved.
• Add 3 cups of the combined flours, 2 cups of warm water, melted Earth Balance, salt, and sugar.
• Mix by hand or with heavy-duty mixer for one minute then gradually add 3 – 3 1/2 cups of flour until moist (not sticky).
• Knead or beat for 10 minutes until smooth, then transfer to an oiled bowl, flip, cover, and let rise in a warm place until doubled (about 2 hours).
• Knead again and shape into two loaves. Place smooth surface up in greased loaf pans, sprinkle with oats and seeds, cover and rise again in warm place until doubled (1 1/2 to 2 hours).
• Preheat oven to 450, bake for 10 minutes, then reduce heat to 350 and bake for 30 minutes longer or until done.

One of the best ways to tap HTB is with a variety of recipes including pancakes, waffles, porridge, pizza, banana bread, muffins, and sourdough.

You can also add it to smoothies, shakes, yogurt, porridge, and juices with a splash of Organifi protein powder.

Enjoy! 😋
