Hello! Can almond flour or another type of flour be substituted for all purpose flour??

Heyy there, Sneha, we haven't tried so we can't say with confidence. Almond flour likely wouldn’t be the best swap here, though. It behaves quite differently and will likely make the fritters a bit too crumbly. We hope you enjoy the recipe if you’re able to give it a try, and if you try any swaps, let us know how it goes ☺️

Pleasantly surprised! Both the texture and the flavor are just right.
Truly a great way to eat more lentils (since I’m not usually a big fan of them).

These look amazing, but i am trying to avoid using oil to reduce calories for weight loss. Have you tested these for cooking in an oven or air fryer? What temp and how long would you recommend for those cooking methods?

Hey Cindi! Thanks for your interest in the fritters. We haven't tested them out in the air-fryer or oven, so we can't say with certainty. If you try any alternative cooking methods, we’d love to hear how it turns out 🙂

These are kid approved and so delicious! At some point I want to try a sweet version with cinnamon and a little bit of sugar because these seem versatile enough to be salty or sweet!
