Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup red lentils
- 1¼ cups water
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Garlic powder to taste (optional)
- Olive oil for cooking
Instructions
- Grind dry red lentils in a blender, food processor, or Vitamix with dry container until they reach a flour-like consistency.
- Transfer the lentil flour to a mixing bowl.
- Add 1¼ cups water and desired seasonings (salt, pepper, garlic powder).
- Mix well, breaking up any clumps that form.
- Let the mixture soak for 10-30 minutes (10 minutes minimum). The batter will thicken to a pancake batter consistency.
- Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat and add a small amount of olive oil.
- Pour a portion of batter into the pan and spread it into a thin circle.
- Cook until bubbles form around the edges and the edges start to brown.
- Flip and cook for about one minute on the other side.
- Repeat with remaining batter.
Notes
When adding wet ingredients (like relishes), reduce the amount of water accordingly to maintain pancake batter consistency.
