Today I propose you these tasty crunchy biscuits with a rustic flavor. Buckwheat gives these biscuits a strong flavor that is well balanced by the dark chocolate. Oat flakes add extra flavor and crunchiness. These biscuits will win you over from the first bite!
Ideal for breakfast in milk or tea, or during a break accompanied by a nice cup of coffee.
