Time 1h30m

Yield 4 1/2 dozen, 54 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

9 1/2 ounces whole wheat pastry flour (about 2 cups)
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground allspice
8 ounces sugar (about 1 cup)
6 ounces unsalted butter, room temperature (about 3/4 cup)
1 egg
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
4 ounces lentils, sorted and rinsed (about 2/3 cup)
2 cups water
1 cup dried fruit
1 cup rolled oats
1 cup unsweetened dried shredded coconut

Steps:

  • In a small pot over medium heat, combine the lentils and the water.
  • Bring to a simmer, cover, and simmer for 30 to 40 minutes, or until lentils are tender.
  • Remove from the heat and puree. If using immediately, let cool. The puree may be stored in the refrigerator for 3 to 4 days or in the freezer for 2 to 3 months.
  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • In a medium bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, salt, cinnamon and allspice.
  • In the bowl of a stand-mixer with a whisk attachment, cream together the sugar and butter on medium speed.
  • Add the egg and mix until just incorporated.
  • Add the vanilla and lentil puree and mix until combined.
  • Add the flour mixture and blend on low speed until just combined.
  • Remove the bowl from the mixer and stir in the oats, dried fruit and coconut.
  • Form the dough into balls about 2 teaspoons in size and place on a baking sheet with parchment paper, leaving about 1-inch of room in between.
  • Bake for 15 to 17 minutes, or until an internal temperature of 195 degrees F is reached on an instant-read thermometer.
