Lentil Flatbread
Just three ingredients for a nutritious low-carb and high fibre flatbread. Add spices if you want and play around with the amount of water you use in terms of how thick you want your flatbread.
Ingredients
- 1 cup red lentils
- 2 cups water
- 1 teaspoon salt or to taste
Instructions
- Add lentils and water to a blender, or food processor and soak for at least 3 hours.
- Blend lentils until they are very smooth. Season with salt. (Batter can be used immediately, but for best results refrigerate overnight).
- To cook, heat a non-stick pan on medium-high. Grease lightly with olive oil and allow to get hot. Add 1/4 to 1/3 cup of batter to the hot pan.
- Use the bottom of a ladle or spoon to spread out into a 5 or 6 inch circle. Lower heat to medium, and adjust from there if needed. Cook the first side for about 1 1/2 to 2 minutes, before flipping over.
- Cook the second side for about 2 minutes, before transferring to a plate. Keep warm flatbreads covered with a towel while cooking and stacking.
- These can be made ahead and reheated, or they can be cooked first and then frozen.
Notes
Use less water for thicker flatbreads. Feel free to season with spices and herbs if you like.
