Preparation

Lentil millet flatbread is a quick and easy to make gluten-free bread for a sandwich, or for eating at any meal. This recipe will make six 5 inch diameter flatbreads, or two dinner plate size flatbreads. We usually bake these lentil millet flatbreads in our microwave oven; the 5 inch flatbreads take a couple of minutes each, or they can be baked in a pre-heated conventional oven at 350 degrees F. in about 15-20 minutes.

We usually grind our own flour in our Vita-Mix dry container. For this recipe, we ground the lentils and millet together at high speed.

Place the flour and baking powder in a mixing bowl, mix together thoroughly, and add enough water to mix into a soft cookie dough or a stiff pancake batter consistency.

Spoon out the lentil millet flatbread dough onto microwaveable plates or onto a non-stick or lightly oiled baking sheet.

Be careful not to over bake.

In a conventional oven, when the top of the flatbread becomes firm, the flatbread is most likely finished baking. Remove from the oven and check the underside by lifting with a spatula. If it is no longer wet, remove from the oven and allow to cool.

When baking in the microwave, bake one plate at a time. With a 5 inch diameter lentil millet flatbread it takes about one and a half minutes to bake on the top side; then flip over with a spatula, and bake for another 15 seconds if the underside is too soft. Cool and enjoy.

They will be yours for food. And to all the beasts of the earth and all the birds of the air and all the creatures that move on the ground-- everything that has the breath of life in it-- I give every green plant for food." And it was so. God saw all that he had made, and it was very good.' (NIV) Let no animal suffer or die that we may live!
