Leave to soak for at least 1 hour, or overnight in the fridge. Drain thoroughly before using. In a large bowl, combine the mashed banana, warm water, honey, oil and yeast. Add the buckwheat flour and bread flour and mix until no dry flour remains. Cover and leave for 20 minutes. Add the salt and drained buckwheat kernels (along with walnuts or cinnamon if using). Mix well until everything is evenly incorporated. Cover and leave in a warm place for 1-1½ hours, or until noticeably puffy. Because of the buckwheat and banana, don't expect it to double like a standard bread dough. Place some baking paper in the tin and transfer the dough into the tin and smooth the top with wet hands or a spatula. Cover and leave for second proof for 45-60 minutes until the dough has risen slightly above the rim of the tin. Preheat your oven to 190°C. Bake for 45-50 minutes, until deep golden brown. If the top is browning too quickly, loosely cover with foil for the final 15 minutes. Allow to cool in the tin for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack. Leave to cool completely before slicing this loaf continues to set as it cools! Serve with butter & honey.
