Red Lentil Crackers #GlutenFree #HighProtein

 Let's make Red Lentil Crackers!

Makes about 48 crackers. 

Ingredients:

• 3/4 cup (140 g) red lentils, soaked
• 3/4 cup (170 ml) water
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1/2 tsp baking powder
• 1 tbsp everything but the bagel seasoning (optional)

Directions:

1. Prepare the lentils: Cover the lentils with water and soak for at least 3 hours or overnight in the fridge. Rinse and drain thoroughly.
2. Preheat oven to 350°F.
3. Make the cracker batter: Transfer the soaked lentils to a mixing bowl, add 3/4 cup water. Using a stick blender, blend to a smooth consistency. (A blender or food processor will also work.) Add olive oil, salt, and baking powder to the lentil mixture. Stir to thoroughly combine all the ingredients.
4. Line a half sheet pan (13-inches x 18-inches) with parchment paper. Pour the lentil mixture onto the prepared baking tray and spread it out into an even layer.  
5. Sprinkle the bagel seasoning evenly over the batter. See note.
6. Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (180°C) for 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and use a pizza cutter or a knife to cut crackers into squares. Return the cut crackers to the oven and bake for an additional 40 minutes or until they are dry and crispy. Cool completely before serving.
