Apple pie with buckwheat and cinnamon

Today a nice apple pie, thanks to my husband that took home a truckload of apples from Valtellina.

It was the first recipe of my cake, I made a small change by adding the buckwheat flour alternating with that kamut and I put a lot of apples.

Lately I use different flour in my recipes and  I must say that I feel better.

The flavor is a bit special, at least for me, the rest of the family loved it.

The mix of these flours with apples and cinnamon have made a different kind of cake, taste very natural and light , brcause there’s no butter.
