I have loved eating pretzels since childhood, they are the one fairground treat I can always call upon myself to enjoy. The taste of salty goodness mixed with the doughy & buttery bread makes for a very happy Amy. Now, as much as I love a good pretzel, you'll seldom find me in the places where pretzels are born; fairgrounds, movie theatres or malls. You can imagine my dilemma when a craving for pretzels came over me the other day, there were no fairgrounds to visit, no movie I dreamed of seeing and it felt silly to visit the mall only for a pretzel, so I took to Google and found a homemade pretzel recipe. I made them as soon as I read the ingredients list and they ended up tasting just like the ones I remember eating as a little girl. Here's to never giving up on the foods we loved in our childhood!
What you'll need for 8 fluffy pretzels:
2.5 cups of all purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
1 teaspoon sugar
2.25 teaspoon instant yeast
1 cup of warm water
1/2 cup warm water
1 tablespoon baking soda
vegetable oil
coarse sea salt
Note: The recipe calls for 9-10 minutes but mine were ready in 7 minutes. Oven temperatures may vary so be careful not to burn your precious pretzels. I will certainly make this recipe again, but maybe next time I'll add a little cinnamon or stuff the dough with mozzarella. Enjoy.

Aahhh, I used to make homemade pretzels before I went gluten-free/vegan! They used to come out SO good, SO much better than store-bought--or should I say, what, festival-bought? Sports-game-vendor-bought? Haha, either way, glad you finally found a nice recipe to make your own!
