Taste's delicious!! I cut the honey down to 1/4 cup and found it to be the perfect balance for taste. Not too sweet and you could also taste the other flavours of the banana and cinnamon. Yum!

Could I swap the buckwheat flour for spelt? I have some I need to use but wonder if it might be too dense?
