{Slow carb & sweet} Sweet lentil waffles. Without flour. Sugar-free. Holy-mackerel-delicious.

"Lentils"? The man looks as if I had just told him that on Thursday I had sold all of our homes to buy a fat, red Lamborghini. Very, very incredulous - but somehow not uninterested. He sniffs the piece of waffle on his plate, peers at it from all sides, sniffs again and then bites off a little.

"Impeccable waffles," he says. "You just wanted to scare me again! This is a joke, come on, admit it already. Yes? "I persist in insisting that the waffle dough is made of yellow lentils. "So, too yellow," the man mumbles, chewing and then breathing like Hannibal Lecter air with fluttering lower lip through his teeth. "Holy mackerel - well, I can not taste it. This is a normal waffle. Absolutely delicious. How did you come back to this lentil thing? "I explain to him that there are small, steamed breakfast cakes made of lentils and flour in the Indian kitchen, and that I have adapted the whole thing for a waffle iron today - only without it Flour. So for Slow and Low Carb and so on. "But there is thick powdered sugar on it!", The man remains suspicious.

"This is not sugar. This is birch bark. "The man froze and rattled. I'm laughing. The poor darling.

It was not until I told him that it was the" sugar " A natural alternative from the health food store, which used to be made from birch bark, but today is made from corn or fruit fermentation, tastes sweet, has no calories, and has no effect on blood sugar levels, the man happily continues munching on his waffles. p>

"Mamaaaa !!! Does this smell like waffles? Was I a? Please, please, please !!! "Okay, I'll keep the ingredients away from the kid for a while. Namely just until he plastered a whole waffle ... gorgeous.

Here comes the recipe for 3-4 large, thick Brussels (S) low-carb waffles:

250 g of yellow lentils (from the health food store or from the Indian supermarket) with boiling water and leave to infuse for at least one hour. Then drain the lentils into a sieve and drain well.

The lentils, 3 eggs , 3 tablespoons of ground almonds , 100 ml of milk or almond milk, 3-4 tablespoons of xylitol or sucoline, 2 teaspoons of ghee , 1/3 teaspoon ground vanilla and Add 1 pinch of salt to a smooth dough in a blender. (Note: the dough tastes raw rather unbelievable, as the green taste of the yellow lentils comes through very strongly, but loses itself completely during baking.)

Let the waffle iron get hot and add 4 tbsp of dough (or as much as your waffle iron can withstand). Bake for 3-5 minutes.Sprinkle and serve the waffles.

Tip for low-carvers:
Although the lentils contain carbohydrates, they also contain plenty of vegetable protein and plenty of fiber. In addition, the carbohydrates of the lenses are metabolized much slower than, for example, flour or sugar - just Slow Carb. The waffles are therefore also in moderation for strict low-carvers geeinget.

Because they are very powerful and well-fed, they also make a great snack in the office (when the little hunger or the sweet tooth pops by) ,

Storage Tip:
Who can eat four waffles at once? ? None. Please store yourself: Allow the finished waffles to cool completely and store in an airtight tin in the fridge. The waffles last about 3 days. Then delicious: just bake briefly in toaster.

Tips for sources:
If not a health food store in the Nearby is, you can order the yellow lenses also great on amazon. There are also xylitol and Sucolin.
