Step 1 of 4

Preheat your oven to 175°C or 350°F. Line a tray with baking paper. Rinse the buckwheat and set aside.

Step 2 of 4

Place the oil, honey, cacao or cocoa into a medium sized heatproof bowl. Very gently melt this mixture over a small saucepan of simmering water or in the microwave for 10 seconds or so. Once melted, stir until the ingredients are well combined and add in the vanilla.

Step 3 of 4

When the mixture is looking lovely and chocolatey, add the buckwheat and stir until the buckwheat is coated. Spread the buckwheat in a single layer on your prepared tray and sprinkle lightly with salt.

Bake the Coco Pops for 7 minutes, remove from the oven and stir. Return to the oven and bake for a further 7 minutes. Stir. Bake for a final 3 minutes. Remove the Coco Pops from the oven and allow to cool completely before storing.
