Preheat oven to 375°
Remove a small amount and roll out dough using extra buckwheat flour if needed.
Cut into shapes and place on parchment lined cookie sheets. Bake 8-10 mins, until edges are just browning.
To make gingerbread house shapes, place the templates on the rolled out dough and cut to the correct shape. Once the pieces are baked and still hot just out of the oven, place the templates on the cooked dough again and using a pizza dough cutter, trim the edges to make the shapes and sizes correct.
