How to Make Buckwheat Flour

Friends, you don’t need to buy another gluten-free flour to add to your pantry (insert collective sigh of relief). If you have buckwheat groats around from making granola or porridge, you can make your own buckwheat flour when you need it! Just 1 blender, 1 ingredient, and 5 minutes required!

Bonus? It tastes fresher than store-bought, and as long as you’re making enough buckwheat flour to go above the blades of your blender, you can make the exact amount your recipe calls for. Let’s do it!

Is Buckwheat Flour Gluten-Free?

Yes, buckwheat flour is gluten-free! Despite having “wheat” and “flour” in the name, buckwheat does not contain any wheat, barley, or rye. It’s not even closely related to wheat, nor is it a member of the grass family. It’s actually the seed of a flowering plant!

How to Make Buckwheat Flour

Making homemade buckwheat flour is seriously easy! Simply add raw buckwheat groats to a blender and blend in 5-10 second increments until fine and powdery, stopping to shake the blender a few times as you go.

In less than 30 seconds, you’ll have fresh buckwheat flour that’s even better than what you’ll get at the store!
