Preparation time: 20 minutes Cooking time 25 minutes Total time 45 minutes

Difficulty: Beginner Servings: 5

Cooking method: Traditional

Ingredients

Portions

• 100g of red lentils
• 100g of almond puree
• 60 g coconut sugar (low GI)
• 1 egg
• 1 tsp liquid vanilla extract
• ^1/2​_tsp soda baking
• 1 pinch of salt
• 50g of pecan nuts

Preparation

1. Cook your red lentils until they are very tender (almost puréed), about twelve minutes in three times their volume of water. Drain them well.
2. In a blender, combine the cooked lentils, almond puree, coconut sugar, egg, and vanilla. Blend until perfectly smooth.
3. Pour the mixture into a bowl. Add the salt and baking soda. Mix with a spatula. Finally, stir in the pecans.

4. Pour the batter into a square baking tin lined with baking paper. Bake at 180°C for 20 to 25 minutes.

5. Allow to cool completely before unmolding. The blondie will firm up as it cools and develop its "fudge" texture.

Note

Coral lentils are completely undetectable in taste! They help lower the glycemic load of your blondie while naturally combating hot flashes.
