Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, combine the buckwheat flour, dried figs, walnuts, hemp hearts, ground flax seeds, thyme, salt, pepper, and baking soda.
Add the maple syrup, balsamic vinegar, and water, then mix until a thick batter forms.
Using a spoon, drop mounds of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Gently flatten the tops if desired.
Bake for 30 minutes, or until the biscuits are lightly browned around the edges and firm to the touch.
Let cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes
-*The easiest way to chop dried figs is with kitchen scissors; a knife or food processor is more cumbersome.-Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days, or freeze for longer storage.-Try the cracker version of this recipe!
