  • 100g of buckwheat flour

Preparation with a Mixer

For 90 mini cakes

In the mixer bowl, weigh the flour with the baking powder

Add the eggs and whisk.

Gradually add the olive oil and water.

Whisk for 1 minute at high speed.

You should obtain a dough with a soft consistency but not too liquid.

Fill with a Piping Bag

Stop the whisk, add and mix by hand the Roquefort cheese in small cubes, pear jam, and pine nuts.

Pour the mixture into a piping bag to fill the small molds.

Bake for approximately 15 minutes at 180°C (adjust according to the mold filling and your oven).

They are done when a knife blade comes out dry.

You can enjoy them warm or freeze them to have nothing to do on the day!
