  • 1/2 tbsp salt
  • 3.54 cups/525-600 g white flour

Toppings

  • seed mix (sunflower, flax, chia, poppy, sesame, hemp)

Pink Mustard Dip

  • 1/2 cup/75 g sunflower seeds, soaked
  • 2 tsp dijon mustard
  • 1 tsp sweet mustard
  • 1.5 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 tbsp tahini
  • 1 tbsp nutritional yeast

  • 1/41/2 cup unsweetened plant milk
  • 45 tbsp beetroot juice

Instructions

Pretzel Bites

  1. In a large bowl mix together warm water, sugar, and yeast. Let stand for 5-10 minutes or until yeast starts to bubble.
  2. Add salt, then slowly add 3 cups of flour, 1 cup at a time, mixing constantly with a wooden spoon. Add more flour until dough is not sticky anymore. For me it is usually 3 +3/4 cups in total.
  3. Turn out dough onto a lightly floured surface. Knead for 3-5 minutes, then shape into a ball, and place into a greased clean bowl. Cover with a kitchen towel, and place in a warm spot for 30-60 minutes, or until dough doubles in size.
  4. Once dough has doubled, cut it into 8 pieces. On a floured surface roll each piece into a 4cm/1.5 inch thick rope, then using a sharp knife cut ropes into 6-7 pieces. 
  5. Preheat oven to 220°C/425°F, and line two baking sheets with baking paper.
  6. Bring 6 cups of water to a boil in a pot, then add baking soda. It’s gonna foam up, so be careful!
  7. Add about half of the pretzel bites to the pot, and let boil for 20-30 seconds, or until they slightly puff up and float to the top. Remove with a slotted spoon, and place on a baking sheet. Make sure pieces are not touching each other. Repeat with the rest of the bites.
  8. Brush pretzel bites with melted vegan butter, and sprinkle with salt and seed mix. Bake for 15-18 minutes, or until golden brown. Enjoy!

Pink Mustard Dip

  1. Place ingredients in a food processor, and blend until creamy. 

Notes

Pretzel Bites are best when eaten fresh, however they also keep for 3-4 days when stored in an airtight container.

You can also freeze Pretzel Bites before or after baking.
