Cinnamon Crunch Soft Pretzels that will wow your taste buds.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 packet Active dry yeast
- 1.5 cups Warm water
- 0.25 cups Granulated sugar
- 4 cups Bob’s Red Mill Organic All-Purpose Flour
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 cups Vegan butter (melted)
- 0.5 cups Brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons Cinnamon
- 1 pinch Salt
- 0.25 cups Cold vegan butter
- 0.5 cups Unsweetened plant milk (for brushing)
- 1 cup Water (combined with baking soda)
- 0.5 cups Baking soda
- 0.5 cups Organic powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon Splash vanilla extract
Instructions
- Combine ingredients: Add your yeast, warm water, and sugar to the bowl of your stand mixer. Mix with a wooden spoon, then let it sit for 5-10 minutes until it blooms and becomes frothy.
- Mix the dough: Add your flour, salt, and melted vegan butter. Using the hook attachment, mix at low speed, then increase to medium for about 5 minutes, until the dough pulls away from the sides and forms a ball.
- Let it rise: Lightly oil a large bowl, place the dough inside, and cover it with a damp towel. Allow it to rest for 1 hour, or until it has doubled in size.
- Prepare the topping: In a small bowl, combine the topping ingredients. Break down the cold vegan butter until well mixed. Set in the fridge until ready to use.
- Shape the pretzels: Once the dough has risen, transfer it to a lightly floured surface. Divide it into 8 equal pieces, stretch each piece to about 26 inches long, and twist them into a classic pretzel shape.
- Boil the pretzels: Line two baking sheets with parchment paper. In a medium pot, bring water and baking soda to a boil. Carefully boil each pretzel for 30 seconds, flipping them at the 15-second mark before placing them on the baking sheet.
- Preheat and glaze: Preheat your oven to 450 degrees F. Brush each pretzel with plant milk and generously top with the cinnamon sugar mixture, pressing down gently to adhere.
- Bake beautifully: Bake for 12-15 minutes until golden and puffed. Let cool on a rack for a few moments, then serve with the sweet glaze for dipping!
