Buckwheat cookies with chocolate

We used to perceive buckwheat exclusively as a side dish, soup or filling for salty dishes, right? But this cereal is able to coolly surprise connoisseurs of healthy sweets! Milled into flour, buckwheat has not only a rich taste and aroma, but also a number of useful properties. Here are the main ones: buckwheat flour is an inexhaustible source of vegetable protein; such a protein contains all the amino acids we need (lysine, threonine, etc.); low fat and high fiber content makes buckwheat flour an indispensable product for a healthy balanced diet; buckwheat flour contains quite a bit of sugar and carbohydrates; frequent use of buckwheat helps to quickly cleanse the body of toxins; at an average level (353 kcal) of calories, buckwheat flour is a frequent ingredient in the preparation of dietary meals for people with diabetes; buckwheat flour contains zinc, magnesium, potassium and iron, vitamins B, E, antioxidants and rutin. White wheat flour cannot boast of even half of those components that are in buckwheat flour. Feel free to use a mixture of buckwheat and whole wheat flour to bake cookies, pies, pancakes and other traditional sweets!
