Ingredients:
1/2 cup (125 mL) split red lentils
1 cup (250 mL) whole wheat flour
3/4 cup (175 mL) rolled oats
1/4 cup (60 mL) shredded coconut
1 1/4 tsp (6 mL) baking soda
1 tsp (5 mL) cinnamon
1/4 tsp (1 mL) salt
1/2 cup (125 mL) melted coconut oil, cooled
1/4 cup (60 mL) packed brown sugar
1/4 cup (60 mL) maple syrup
1 tsp (5 mL) vanilla extract
1 large egg
3/4 cup (175 mL) mini chocolate chips
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9x13-inch (23x33 cm) baking pan.
2. Rinse lentils under cool running water and transfer to a small saucepan. Cover lentils with water and bring to a boil. Reduce heat, cover and let simmer for 5-7 minutes until lentils are tender.
Remove from heat, drain any excess liquid, and set aside to cool.
3. While lentils are cooking, whisk together flour, oats, coconut, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt in a medium bowl. Set aside.
4. To a large bowl, add coconut oil, brown sugar, maple syrup, egg, and vanilla. Add cooked lentils and whisk by hand until well-blended.
5. Combine wet and dry ingredients, and with a wooden spoon or spatula, gently stir by hand until almost combined. Be sure to not over stir. Add chocolate chips and stir until just incorporated.
6. Transfer mixture to the prepared pan. Bake for 15 minutes, or until top is starting to become golden brown.
7. Allow to cool before slicing and serving.
