Directions

  1. In a small saucepan cover the lentils with water, bring to a boil, and simmer for 12-15 minutes, or until very soft. Drain well and set aside.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. In a medium bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, oil, and vanilla. Add to the dry ingredients along with the lentils, and whisk until well blended – do not worry about getting all the lumps out.
  3. Preheat your waffle iron and spray it with nonstick spray. Cook the batter 1/3 cup at a time, or according to the manufacturer’s directions, until golden and crisp. Serve warm.
