• servings: 12 servings
• active time: 5 minutes
• total time: 1 hour 5 minutes

Ingredients

350 g Split Red Lentils, uncooked (1 ¾ cup)

250 g Cottage Cheese (1 cup)

1 tbsp Baking Powder

250 ml Water (1 cup)

Directions

Soak the lentils in water for at least 6 hours or overnight until soft.

Drain and rinse the soaked lentils thoroughly.

Add the soaked lentils, cottage cheese, water, and baking powder to a blender or food processor. Blend until the mixture is smooth and well combined. Optionally, add in any herbs or seasonings of your choice.

Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Grease a 2lb loaf pan (approximately 20cm x 10cm) or line it with parchment paper.

Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.

Bake for 60 minutes, or until the bread has risen and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Allow the bread to cool completely in the pan before slicing.
