Step by step
Method

Soak the lentils for at least two hours, or preferably overnight.
- 02
After soaking, add the lentils, psyllium husk, olive oil, water, and salt into a blender. Blend everything until it forms a moldable dough. Transfer the dough to a bowl.
- 03
In a small cup, mix the baking powder with the lemon juice. Pour this mixture over the dough and knead it well.
- 04
Shape the dough into rolls and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Wet your hands with a little water to prevent sticking while shaping.
- 05
Bake for 30 minutes at 180°C (350°F).
