Ingredients

    3 cups (750 mL) unsalted butter, melted

    4 ½ cups (1.125 mL) packed brown sugar

    6 large eggs

    3 Tbsp (45 mL) vanilla extract

    6 cups (1.5 L) all-purpose flour

    1 ½ tsp (7 mL) salt

    3 cups (750 mL) lentil puree (see note below)

    3 cups (750 mL) chocolate chips

    3 cups (750 mL) toasted walnuts


Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C). Grease a full sheet tray or line with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, combine melted butter and brown sugar, mixing until smooth. Beat in the eggs one at a time, followed by vanilla.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together flour and salt. Gradually add dry mixture to wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
  4. Fold lentil puree into the batter until evenly distributed. Stir in the chocolate chips and walnuts.
  5. Pour batter onto prepared sheet tray, spreading it out evenly.
  6. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean or with minimal crumbs.
  7. Allow blondies to cool in the pan on a wire rack before cutting into squares.

To make Lentil Puree: To make 3 cups (750 mL) of lentil puree, cook approximately 1 ½ cups (375 mL) of lentils in boiling water until soft, then blend with water as needed to achieve a smooth, pumpkin-like consistency.
