Gluten-Free / Rice Free Mini Buckwheat Loaves

The great thing about baking gluten-free breads in mini loaf pans is that the batter rises so nicely and doesn't collapse as it sometimes does when using larger sized loaf pans. And there's something so warm and cuddly about a mini loaf of bread!

This recipe for rice free gluten-free yeast bread is moist and doesn't have the gritty texture characteristic of some rice flour bread recipes. I did use several ingredients that you may need to find at a health food store or even online but I found the results worth the additions.

I'm a big fan of buckwheat because it's not a grain at all, but the seed of a flowering plant classified as an herb which is related to the rhubarb family. Learn more about the stellar nutritional qualities of buckwheat and how you can use it in gluten-free cooking.
