Ingredients

• 3 tablespoons Dairy-free butter
• 1 cup Warm water
• 1 packet (2 1/4 teaspoons) Active dry yeast
• 2 tablespoons Brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 3 cups All-purpose flour
• 0.75 cup Creamy peanut butter
• 0.25 cup Baking soda
• 6 cups Water for boiling
• 2 tablespoons Coarse sea salt

Directions

Step 1

In a small saucepan, melt the dairy-free butter over low heat and let it cool slightly.

Step 2

In a large bowl, combine the warm water and yeast. Let it sit for about 5 minutes until it becomes frothy.

Step 3

Stir in the melted dairy-free butter, brown sugar, and salt into the yeast mixture.

Step 4

Gradually add the flour to the wet ingredients, stirring with a wooden spoon until a dough forms.

Step 5

Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and knead for about 5-7 minutes, until the dough is smooth and elastic.

Step 6

Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover with a clean kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm area for about 20 minutes.

Step 7

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

Step 8

In a small bowl, mix the creamy peanut butter until smooth and set aside.

Step 9

Once the dough has risen, divide it into 16 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a rope and flatten it slightly with your fingers.

Step 10

Spread about 1/2 tablespoon of peanut butter along the length of each flattened dough piece.

Step 11

Carefully fold the dough over the peanut butter and pinch the edges to seal, then gently roll again to form a cylindrical rope.

Step 12

Shape each rope into a pretzel shape by forming a U, twisting the ends together, and laying them over the rounded portion.

Step 13

In a large pot, bring the 6 cups of water to a boil. Slowly add the baking soda and reduce the heat to a simmer.

Step 14

Gently place each pretzel into the simmering water for about 20-30 seconds, then transfer to the prepared baking sheets.

Step 15

Sprinkle each pretzel with coarse sea salt while still damp.

Step 16

Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown.

Step 17

Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving.
