Ingredients
  

Pretzel Dough

  • 2+1/4 cup All Purpose Flour
  • 1/2 tsp Salt
  • 1 tbsp Sugar
  • 1 tbsp Instant Yeast must be instant yeast, see note for how to sub active dry yeast.
  • 1 cup Warm Water

Baking Soda Bath

  • 5 cups Water
  • 1/4 cup Baking Soda

To top the Pretzels

  • 5-6 tbsp Vegan Butter or coconut oil or olive oil
  • 1 tbsp Flakey or Kosher Salt use salt as needed

Instructions
 

  • Start my making the dough. Add the flour, salt, sugar & active yeast to a bowl and mix. Add 1 cup of warm water and mix until the dough becomes shaggy.
  • Put the dough on the counter and knead for 5-10 minutes until the dough comes together and is a smooth texture. Roll into a ball, place in a greased bowl, cover & proof until it has doubled in size, 30-60 min. 30 minutes is usually enough!
  • Take the dough out of the bowl and cut into 4-5 pieces. Roll each piece into a long strip then cut the strips into even bite-sized pieces.
  • Make the baking soda bath by adding the water to a pot and bringing it to a light simmer. Add your baking soda and mix.
  • Add the dough bites to the baking soda bath 8-10 at a time. Leave them in for about 30 seconds, flipping halfway though. Scoop out with a slotted spoon, drain excess liquid & put onto a baking tray.
  • Add flaky or kosher salt on top of the bites. Bake for 10-13 minutes at 450 degrees until golden all over.
  • Once the bites come out of the oven brush them immediately with a generous amount of vegan butter, or oil.

Notes

***Sub for active dry yeast***
If using active dry yeast instead, mix 1 tbsp yeast with 1/4 cup warm water and a pinch of sugar & let sit for 10 min then add with the rest of the ingredients and decrease the amount of water added by a 1/4 cup.
