  • 200 ml water
  • ⅓ tsp salt

Filling (optional)

Instructions 

*Note: Feel free to check out the recipe video + step-by-step pictures at the top of the post!

    Lentil Pancakes

    • Cover the red lentils with water and soak overnight. Then drain the lentils, add to a blender along with 200 ml of fresh water and salt and blend until smooth.
    • Heat a little oil in a non-stick pan. Then pour a portion of batter into the pan and spread evenly to form a circle. Once the surface is no longer runny, carefully flip the pancake and cook the other side (depending on the size and thickness of the pancake, it will take about 3-4 minutes per side).
    • Repeat the process with the remaining batter until all the pancakes are cooked.

    Filling (optional)

    • Heat the oil in a skillet or pan and cook the mushrooms for about 3 minutes. Then flip and cook for another 2-3 minutes.
    • Add the garlic and sauté for 1 minute. Then add tamari, stir and continue cooking for a minute until the mushrooms are nice and golden brown. Season with a little pepper to taste.
    • Spread the lentil pancakes with some hummus. Then top with spinach and garlic mushrooms. Garnish with sprouts and parsley if desired and serve.
    • Enjoy!

    Notes

    • You can also use these pancakes as an alternative to tortillas to make wraps.
    • Feel free to add some spices or herbs to the batter.
    • If you want to serve the pancakes sweet, simply use less salt and add a little sweetness and optional spices such as cinnamon or vanilla.
    • Leftover pancakes can be kept covered in the refrigerator. Then simply reheat in the microwave or pan.
    • You can also freeze the pancakes. Then let them thaw overnight in the refrigerator and reheat.
    • The nutritional information is calculated for 1 pancake of 6 without toppings.
