Ingredients

• 2 cups Almond flour
• 2 cups Mozzarella cheese
• 2 tablespoons Cream cheese
• 1 large Egg
• 1 tablespoon Baking powder
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 tablespoon Baking soda
• 4 cups Hot water
• 2 tablespoons Coarse sea salt

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a microwave-safe bowl, combine mozzarella cheese and cream cheese. Microwave on high for 1 minute, stir, then continue heating in 20-second intervals until completely melted and combined.

Step 3

In a separate bowl, mix almond flour, baking powder, salt, and garlic powder.

Step 4

Add the flour mixture to the melted cheese mixture, followed by the egg. Mix well using a spatula to form a dough.

Step 5

Divide the dough into 8 equal parts. Roll each part into a rope, approximately 12 inches long, and shape each into a pretzel by crossing the ends and twisting in the middle.

Step 6

In a large pot, bring 4 cups of hot water and baking soda to a simmer, then reduce heat. Gently place each pretzel in the water for 30 seconds, then remove and place on the prepared baking sheet.

Step 7

Sprinkle each pretzel with coarse sea salt.

Step 8

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

Step 9

Let cool for a few minutes on a wire rack before serving. Enjoy your Keto Bavarian Soft Pretzels with your favorite dipping sauce!
