Chocolate Crunch Bar with Lentils

After 3 times doing the Dubai Pistacchio Chocolate and 3 times the Date Peanutbutter Bars, I decided it was time for something new.



Some health guy "likegian" posted it and I thought WTF?



Others put rice crispies or cornflakes in chocolate to give it some crunch. Why not lentils. Protein intake on an other level.



The whole process is easy and can be done on the side while you cook something different.



The use of chocolate moulds is not mandatory. Just use a decent container to flatten the mix out.

Ingredients for 2 chocolate bars:

100 g yellow lentil

110 g semi sweet chocolate 60%

Some edible glitter 

Preheat the oven 180 C



Cook the lentils in unsalted water for 10 to 15 min. Check if they are done and not too hard.

Drain them very good and spread them on baking paper in a single layer. Bake them 15 min, stir and turn the oven off and let them sit inside an other 5 min.



Melt 100 g chocolate in the microwave in 30 sec blasts at 800 Watts, stir. Take the chocolate bowl out and toss in the 10 g cold chocolate to melt slowly in the hot liquid. Basic temper of chocolate.

Mix with the chocolate and fill the moulds. Pur in the fridge to cool.
