Buckwheat Flour Bread covered with sunflower seeds

I have written in my previous post Yeast Free Bread how I needed badly a good recipe for the yeast-free gluten free bread. My son was happy what I was baking and he was eating it happily. My family and friends were also happy but I was not satisfied. My breads were tasty enough but something was missing - texture and fluffiness like regular bread. Sometimes they were crumbly and sometimes they were too moist.
 

After a lot of research and experiment I have few successes and I have posted them on my Facebook page - GFCF Rasoi - Breakfast. And time to time my friends asked for the recipes. Now the time has come that I should share my recipes with GFCF Rasoi fans.
 

So I start with my favorite bread - Buckwheat flour bread covered with sunflower seeds. I like sunflower seeds on the bread but my son doesn't. He eats middle part and gives me sunflower seeds crust part.
