Ingredients
– 1 cup red lentils, rinsed
– 1 cup all-purpose flour
– 1 teaspoon baking powder
– 1/2 teaspoon salt
– 1 cup milk
– 1 egg
– 2 tablespoons maple syrup
Instructions
1. In a blender, blend the rinsed red lentils until they form a smooth, flour-like consistency.
2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the lentil flour, all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt.
3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, and maple syrup.
4. Slowly pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined (do not overmix).
5. Heat a lightly oiled griddle or nonstick pan over medium heat.
6. Scoop about 1/4 cup of batter per pancake and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown.
7. Serve the Red Lentil Pancakes warm, topped with your favorite toppings such as fresh fruit, maple syrup, or powdered sugar.
Notes
For a thinner pancake batter, add more milk. For a fluffier texture, separate the egg and whisk the egg white until stiff before folding it into the batter.
