Soft Baked Pretzel
Ingredients
- 1 tbsp maple syrup
- 1/2 tablespoon active dry yeast
- 3/4 cup water
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 2 cups flour
- 1 tsp sea salt
- 2 tbsp baking soda
Instructions
-
Get your mixer (if you have one) add the flour, salt, oil, yeast mixture and 1/2 cup of water. Run on medium low for about 5 minutes until the dough pulls away from the bowl. Form the dough into a ball.
-
Cover and allow the dough to rise for about 40 minutes, or until it has doubled in size.
-
Preheat your oven to 450 degrees.
-
Uncover your dough and prepare a cookie sheet with parchment paper on it.
-
Cut the dough into 6 equal sections and roll each out to long rope.
-
Grab the ends of each dough rope to make a U shape, then form into a pretzel shape.
-
Put 6 cups of water into a pot and dissolve the 2 tablespoons of baking soda into the water and bring to a rolling boil.
-
Drop pretzels, one at a time, into the pot. Each should sink a little then rise up. Wait 30 seconds, then lift out using a slotted spoon and place each onto the cookie sheet.
-
Take a sharp knife and cut a 4-6 inch slit along the bottom of the pretzel.
-
Bake for about 14 minutes or until golden brown. Melt some butter and grab some powdered sugar and add to to the top for some extra taste.
