Preheat your oven to 375Β°F (190Β°C) and line a 9x5 inch loaf pan with parchment paper or lightly oil it.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the buckwheat flour, gluten-free all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
In a separate bowl, combine the unsweetened applesauce, low-fat plain yogurt, eggs, honey, and water. Mix until well blended.
Add the chia seeds and apple cider vinegar to the wet ingredients and stir to combine.
Gradually fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Mix until everything is well incorporated, but be careful not to overmix, as this can make the bread dense.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.
Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 40-45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Once baked, remove the bread from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes.
Transfer the loaf onto a wire rack to cool completely before slicing and serving.
