Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup Red Lentils (soaked)
- 1.25 cups Water (for blending)
- 2 tablespoons Chia Seeds (or Flaxseeds)
- 1 teaspoon Salt (adjust to taste)
- 1 teaspoon Garlic Powder (optional)
- 1 teaspoon Black Pepper (adjust to taste)
- 1 tablespoon Olive Oil (for greasing)
Instructions
- Soak the Lentils: Begin by soaking 1 cup of red lentils in water for at least 2 hours or overnight.
- Prepare the Chia Seeds: Combine 2 tablespoons with 6 tablespoons of water in a small bowl and let them sit for about 10-15 minutes until they form a gel-like consistency.

- Repeat the Process: Continue cooking the remaining batter, adding oil to the pan as needed.
- Serve Warm: Enjoy the flatbreads warm for the best flavor.
