Quick and easy recipe for a healthy pancake option. Only one ingredient—can you believe it? Serve with hummus, scrambled tofu, or simply with butter and maple syrup. These delicious gluten-free pancakes are just perfect for any time of the day. You can also add nut butter and jam on top for a delicious sweet option. Lentils need to be soaked overnight or for at least a few hours to soften the grains. The pancake in the picture is yellow/orange, but you can make them with regular lentils, and it will work just fine. You can blend and store the batter in your fridge for later use.

8 hours
10 minutes
10 minutes
1 cup lentils (soaked overnight or for at least a few hours)
salt
Soak the Lentils: Place the lentils in a bowl and cover with water. Let them soak overnight or for at least a few hours to soften the grains.
Blend the Batter: Drain the soaked lentils and rinse them well. Place the lentils in a blender and blend until you get a smooth batter. You can add a little water to achieve the desired consistency; the amount of water will dictate the thickness of your pancake. Add salt to taste if desired.
Cook the Pancakes: Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat. Pour a ladleful of the lentil batter into the pan and spread it out evenly to form a pancake. Cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through.
Serve: Serve the pancakes warm with your choice of toppings. They pair wonderfully with hummus, scrambled tofu, butter and maple syrup, or nut butter and jam.
Tip: Store the blended batter in the fridge for up to 2 days for quick and easy pancakes whenever you want.
Variation: Use different types of lentils for a variety of flavors and colors.
