High-Protein Lentil Flatbread infused with lovely herbs

👩‍🍳 Step-by-Step Instructions:

1. Soak the Lentils: Place your rinsed red lentils in a medium bowl and cover them completely with boiling water. Let them soak for 15 to 20 minutes to soften up. (Pro-Tip: If you have extra time, you can soak them in cold water for 2-3 hours instead!)
2. Blend to a Smooth Batter: Drain the soaked lentils thoroughly and discard the soaking water. Transfer the softened lentils into a high-speed blender. Add 1 ½ cups of fresh water, salt, and garlic powder. Blend on high for 1 minute until the mixture transforms into a completely smooth, creamy, pourable batter—similar to a thin pancake mix.
3. Fold in the Herbs: Pour the smooth lentil batter into a mixing bowl. Toss in your finely chopped fresh herbs and stir them evenly throughout the mix with a spoon. This gives the flatbreads those gorgeous green speckles visible on the crust in .
4. Heat the Skillet: Heat a high-quality non-stick skillet or cast-iron griddle over medium heat. Lightly brush the surface with a tiny drop of olive oil.
5. Pour and Spread: Ladle about ½ cup of the herb-lentil batter directly onto the center of the hot skillet. Using the back of your ladle or spoon, gently swirl the batter outward in a circular motion to form a neat, even flatbread (about 6-7 inches wide).
6. Flip to Golden Perfection: Let it cook undisturbed for 2 to 3 minutes. You will see bubbles form on the surface and the edges will begin to look dry and lift. Carefully slide a spatula underneath, flip it over, and press down gently. Cook the second side for another 2 minutes until it develops beautiful, rustic, golden-brown charred spots, just like the stack displayed in .
7. Stack and Garnish: Remove the finished flatbread from the heat and place it on a wooden serving board. Stack your flatbreads on top of each other as you finish cooking the remaining batter—this helps capture the steam, keeping them incredibly soft and pliable!
8. The Fresh Finish: Garnish the very top of your warm stack with a few fresh, whole herb leaves, perfectly matching the beautiful presentation styled in i.
