  • Today’s recipe is so incredible that you may look to try it right away after you watch this video, especially if you’re into vegetarian, gluten-free, grain-free, healthy and tasty bread recipes!
    Instead of grain flour, our incredible mini loaf breads are made with red lentils! This incredible legume is low in sodium and saturated fat, high in potassium, fiber, folate, and plant polyphenols that have an important antioxidant activity. They are packed with healthy nutrients (imagine in just 1 cup of raw red lentils you’ll get: 45.91 g of protein; 20.7 g of fiber and 14.19 mg of iron for a total of 687 calories). On top of all those impressive nutritional benefits, they taste great and they are so versatile that you can use them in the classic soups and stews or in making the best gluten-free bread, you would think of, like in today’s recipe! In order to make our lentils mini loaf breads even more nutritious and filling, we added cottage cheese (26 g of protein) and eggs (12 g of protein) to boost their protein content even more!
    If you give these mini breads a try, I’m almost sure you’ll be surprised how good they are 🙏
    Bake in a preheated oven for 40 minutes at 350 °F / 180 °C
    Ingredients:
    These amounts made 9 lentils mini breads
    1 cup (190 g) red lentils (687 calories)
    2 eggs (148 calories)
    1 cup (250 g) cottage cheese or any soft cheese of your choice (240 calories)
    4 tbsp. (55 g) olive oil (480 calories)
    1 tsp. (6g) salt
    black pepper (optional)
    ½ tbsp. (7 g) baking powder
    1 tsp. sesame seeds or other seeds of your choice for garnish (optional)
    1 tsp. poppy seeds or other seeds of your choice for garnish (optional)
    These qualities made 9 red lentils mini breads. Per each mini bread you’ll get ~173 calories and ~9.3 g of protein!
    Ingrédients:
    Les quantités utilisées ont donné 9 petits pains. Chaque petit pain compterait ~173 calories et ~9.3 g de protéines!
    1 tasse (190 g) de lentilles corail (687 calories)
    2 œufs (148 calories)
    1 tasse (250 g) de fromage cottage (240 calories) ou 1 tasse de yaourt grecque, crème sûre ou produit équivalent de votre choix
    4 cs. d’huile d’olive (480 calories)
    1 c. de sel
    Du poivre du moulin (optionnel)

    • @zaracooks
      @zaracooks  Год назад +1

      Hey Nancy,
      Yes, if you want to keep the taste plain and close to regular bread, you can simply skip the eggs and add some extra cottage cheese. But, I think, you’ll still get good lentils bread like these if you prefer to replace eggs with a banana or flaxseed. The breads will be sweet in the first case and will taste the flaxseed in the second. If you try one or the other, let me know how it works 🙏

      That hollow scenario is likely due to a slightly runnier batter. Try to really really drain well the lentils from the extra water after you rinse them. That might have been the cause. Also make sure your baking powder is fresh 😇

      That’s a good question, actually! I always keep any kind of bread in the fridge (up to 1 week) or in the freezer (for a few weeks or even months) including these lentils bread ones that contain eggs. I would think, it’s safer to leave them no more than a day or 2 outside the fridge 🙏

      @zaracooks  Год назад +2

      Yes, you can use a regular muffin pan. They may need slightly more time to bake thoroughly (45 to 50 mins). Try the clean knife after 40 mins baking to check.

    • @zaracooks
      @zaracooks  2 месяца назад +2

      Sorry for you 🥲
      I don’t think the gluten free baking powder is the cause of dense center! It could be because of a runnier batter (have you drained the lentils really well)? It could also be the baking time. It takes way more the height of the bread is too high (it could be that, actually). I recommend to use a larger baking pan that you can get used to the right batter consistency and baking time before baking in a loaf pan 🙏

    Had the same problem a few have mentioned. The loaves looked great at 20 minutes when I turned them in the oven to make sure everything was baking evenly. They rose and looked great. At the end of another 20 minutes they had fallen. I let them cool and sliced one open and it was a bit dense inside. Not sure what to try differently. I soaked the lentils over night in the fridge. I rinsed and let them sit for 30 minutes in the strainer to make sure they were well drained. I mixed until very smooth. Over mixing is the only thing I can think happened.

    • @zaracooks
      @zaracooks  Год назад +2

      Sorry Julianna, to hear that 🙏
      I can see that you followed all the recommendations to get the best results with these lentil breads and, yet 😢
      Since you said they rose and fall, I’m only thinking of the baking powder. Is it fresh enough? Or the heat, was the oven preheated before that it won’t heat up too high at the beginning before temperature goes more constant?
      I really can’t explain how much easy, I found it, working with this lentils batter (yes, it’s a bit dense but it’s very easy to work with)! I’m experimenting a sweet version, and despite many mistakes, the result is always amazing (great shape and texture like with regular flour each time) 🙏

      @@zaracooks oven was definitely preheated. Pretty sure baking powder is fine as I haven't had anything not rise. Since it rose and fell, I don't that that was it. I'm thinking I'll try to use the blender to puree the lentils and cottage cheese. Then maybe Mixon the egg more gently. Perhaps best the egg whites separately and fold them in? Not sure. Whatever 8 did, they did not hold their structure. I have the rest of the package of lentils to try again. The taste is good so I'm not giving up!

      Red lentils are light in texture so it's best suited to make bread. If using the brown or green they are heavier lentils hence they will be dense in texture. Try using 2 Tbs of Psyllium husk to the batter once in the bowl, not to the blender. Let it rest for 10 mins n it will be lighter in texture.

      To answer your question here’s for you the numbers for all the Macros.
      Macros for 1 mini bread are as follows:
      Energy: 181 calories
      Protein: 9.69 g
      Fat: 9.61 g
      Carbohydrates: 14.48 g
      Fiber: 2.3 g
      Iron: 2.23 mg
      And if you have concerns about diabetes, you shouldn’t worry too much about the carbs since lentils and legumes in general are even beneficial for diabetics. They tend to decrease blood glucose (see the finding of this research) 👇

      Lentil is much denser than regular flour, so that it doesn’t rise too high. It will rise maximum like a 1/3 of what you pour. Also, may be the batter was a bit more runny than it should (you need to strain completely from water once you rinse, that can make the batter too wet and rather compact in the center). It takes some try and fail to get the best result. Then you will really enjoy how good and versatile working with red lentils can be 🙏

Also, even if they look sticky, they’ll get more solid once they’re cooled down. I suggest you stop baking (it should not take more than 1 hour) and sorry again for your struggle 🙏

      Or use a larger and wider baking pan (like a 21 cm large one), they will have a similar height (2 cm) as in the recipe here. You can cut the size you like 🙏
