Ingredients

• 2 cups almond flour
• 1 cup arrowroot starch
• 1 cup nutritional yeast
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 teaspoon sea salt
• 1 cup water
• 1 tablespoon coconut oil (melted)
• 1 large egg
• 1 tablespoon coarse sea salt (for topping)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, arrowroot starch, nutritional yeast, baking soda, and sea salt. Mix well.

Step 3

In a separate smaller bowl, beat the egg. Add the water and melted coconut oil to the egg and whisk to combine.

Step 4

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until a dough forms. The mixture should be pliable but not too sticky.

Step 5

Divide the dough into 6 equal portions. Roll each portion into a rope about 12 inches long, then shape into a pretzel by forming a 'U', twisting the ends together twice, then folding the twist back over the center of the 'U'.

Step 6

Place the pretzels on the prepared baking sheet. Brush each pretzel lightly with water and sprinkle coarse sea salt on top.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the pretzels are golden and firm to the touch.

Step 8

Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your Whole30 compliant cheese pretzels.
