Pour the lentils into a pot. Add in the 2 cups of water. Place on the stove, bring to a boil over high heat. Once boiling lower the heat to medium or medium high depending on the strength of your stove. Continue to boil for about 25 minutes or until the water has evaporated and the lentils are soft.

In the meantime, pulse the oats for about 30 seconds in a blender until they reach oat flour consistency but still has some texture to it. Do not over blend it.

Preheat the oven to 400°F (204°C).

Once the lentils are done cooking, gently mash them with the back of a fork or potato masher. Mash them until they are mostly broken down but again there is some texture. The texture of the oats and the lentils help to not make this mushy.

Then pour in the oat flour and the seasonings. Mix together until it forms a mixture that is holds itself together and easy shapes into a patty. If the mixture feels too wet you can always add in a bit more oats, if it feels too dry you can add in a 1 to 2 teaspoons of water.

Use a ⅓ measuring cup to scoop the mixture out and then use your hands to shape it into a patty. Place on a lined baking sheet. Repeat until you have made 4.

If you like you can spray them with a bit of spray oil. Bake in the oven for 18 minutes, flipping halfway through. The patties should be crispy and browned.

Once they are done you can enjoy immediately or save for another time.
