Vegan + GF // Lentil Oat Pancakes // recipe at feedyourskull.com

I love trying new ingredients purely for the sake of experimentation and education. So when I saw a package of lentil flour from Joseph’s Grainery, a local favorite, I had to buy it.

Lentils are a pulse and an excellent source of protein, fiber, vitamins, and minerals. A single tablespoon of lentils has a whopping 4 grams of fiber and 3 grams of protein. You can even sprout lentils (delicious on salads) to magnify their nutrition.

Lentil flour is simply ground lentils. If you have a food processor or high-speed blender you are all set to grind your own.

Because they are a pulse they make an excellent option for gluten-free baking and cooking. While I’m not gluten-free I am sensitive to the fact that many find their digestive issues eased switching to a diet low in gluten or gluten-free. This is a recipe all of us are sure to enjoy.

Lentil flour much like coconut flour is very dense so it’s recommended to dilute it with other favorite flours. In today’s pancakes I used oat flour, because it’s an easy one to whip up and I always have oats on hand. If you happen to try these using a different flour, please let us know in the comments how it worked out. 😇


How do they taste?

They have a wonderful light crumb for how dense lentils are and a subtle nutty lentil flavor. They were amazing with fresh strawberries and a little maple syrup.

This single-serving recipe is PACKED with good stuff.
