Recipe for Soft Pretzels

INGREDIENTS

½ cup of water

½ cup of coconut oil

½ teaspoon pink salt

2 Tablespoons apple cider vinegar

½ cup of almond meal

½ teaspoon of baking soda

½ teaspoon baking powder

1 cup of coconut flour

3 large egg

Glaze

¼ tsp. melted coconut oil 

1/8 tsp. of pink salt 

INSTRUCTIONS

1.       In a small pan melt over medium heat, add the water, coconut oil, salt, and vinegar and bring to a boil.

2.       Remove the pan from the heat and place on your counter top.

3.       Add in the almond flour and stir for 2 minutes until you get a wet paste.

4.       Add in the baking soda and powder and stir while the mixture foams - roughly 3 seconds.

5.       Next add in the coconut flour and eggs and mix well until you get a dough.

6.       Place the dough on a piece of parchment paper and knead for 30 seconds to 1 minute. If you are having issues getting it to combine, you can try putting it into a food processor or Blendtec/Vitamix to get it to form a dough.

7.       Place in Pretzel Pan mold. Can be found at Target.

8.       Sprinkle coarse salt on the surface and bake at 350 degrees for 25 - 30 minutes
