Ingredients
- 3.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 packet Active dry yeast
- 1 tablespoon Granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1.5 cups Warm water
- 0.67 cup Baking soda
- 10 cups Water for boiling
- 2 tablespoons Vegan butter, melted
- 0 Coarse salt for topping
Directions
Step 1
In a large bowl, combine warm water, yeast, and sugar. Stir lightly and let sit for 5 minutes until it becomes frothy.
Step 2
Add salt and flour slowly to the yeast mixture, mixing with a wooden spoon until a dough begins to form.
Step 3
Transfer dough to a flour-dusted surface and knead for about 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic.
Step 4
Place kneaded dough in a lightly greased bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let rise in a warm place for about 45 minutes or until doubled in size.
Step 5
Preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
Step 6
Bring 10 cups of water and baking soda to a boil in a large pot.
Step 7
Once the dough has risen, punch it down and transfer it to a clean surface. Divide the dough into 8 equal portions.
Step 8
Roll each portion into ropes about 18 inches long and cut each rope into 1-inch nuggets.
Step 9
Carefully drop pretzel nuggets into the boiling water (about 10 at a time) and let boil for 20-30 seconds. Remove with a slotted spoon and place onto prepared baking sheets.
Step 10
Brush each nugget with melted vegan butter and sprinkle with coarse salt.
Step 11
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until golden brown.
Step 12
Remove from oven and let cool on a wire rack for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy your vegan soft pretzel nuggets!
