Gluten free buckwheat flour cookies ?? Eww !! What have you made , I won’t eat that , those are my hubbies words when I told him that I have prepared gluten free cookies . But after lots of insisting he tried one and said oh my God these cookies are so crunchy , chewy , mouth melting and delicious . I got a thumbs up from him and that means a lot to me.

Well this buckwheat flour was lying in my pantry since Navratri Fasting and I was thinking to make something other then fasting recipes . So I googled and found this recipe here . First I was it skeptical whether to try or not . After many ifs and buts I gave it a try and boom , it was a super hit . The cookies tasted just like store bought but a thousands time more delicious .

The addition of brown rice flour makes the cookies more chewy and crunchy .Do try them on your own and you won’t regret about it. So let’s start the recipe . Yum

1/2 cup buckwheat flour
1/2 cup brown rice flour
