These golden-brown treats took me back to the memories of that amazing bakery in London, where Dan and I discovered the joy of pretzels. There was this amazing bakery in the bottom level of a department store called Selfridges in central London. We would go just before they would close and buy a few of their pretzels at 75% off! We’d never really had many pretzels until we moved to London. I often miss those pretzels… until today.
Now, you can recreate those moments of indulgence with this simple yet scrumptious recipe. With just self-rising wholemeal flour and greek yoghurt, you’ll be amazed at how effortlessly these pretzels come together. So, let’s roll up our sleeves and dive into this delightful baking adventure!
Serves 4 | RSF
Refined Sugar-Free
Ingredients:
Pretzels:
- 1 cup self-rising wholemeal flour
- 1 cup greek yoghurt
- Pinch of sea salt
Boil:
- Water
- 2 tbsp baking soda
Coating:
- 1 egg (or vegan butter)
- Sea salt
Method:
- Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the self-rising wholemeal flour, Greek yogurt, and a pinch of sea salt. Mix until a smooth dough forms.
- Lightly flour a surface and roll the dough into a ball. Divide it into four sections with a knife and roll each section into a long line.
- Carefully shape each line into a pretzel, ensuring the ends are securely pressed down to prevent unraveling during baking.
- In a small bowl, whisk the egg with a fork and generously brush it over the pretzels, coating them evenly.
- For a larger, fluffier pretzel, prepare a pot of water and add the baking soda. Bring it to a boil.
- Using a spatula, carefully submerge each pretzel in the boiling water for 5-10 seconds. This step helps them puff up slightly.
- Remove the pretzels from the water and place them on the prepared baking tray.
- Bake the pretzels in the preheated oven for about 20 minutes or until they turn lightly brown.
- Once baked, brush the pretzels with melted butter (or vegan butter) and sprinkle with sea salt for added flavor.
- Serve warm and enjoy the goodness of these irresistible 2-Ingredient Pretzels!
