25 minutes

Buckwheat flour chocolate cookies are an unusual blend of a traditional European dessert and the benefits of buckwheat flour. Buckwheat, widely used in Eastern European cuisine, gives the cookies a rich nutty flavor and tender texture. The addition of cocoa and spices fills them with deep chocolate notes with a hint of cinnamon and vanilla. These cookies are a great choice for those who want to enjoy sweets without gluten. They pair perfectly with a cup of strong coffee or fragrant tea, and their airy structure and crispy crust make them an excellent option for cozy evenings or friendly gatherings.
