Ingredients

• 2 cups almond flour
• 1 cup tapioca flour
• 1 tablespoon coconut flour
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 teaspoon pink sea salt
• 3 quarters cup warm water
• 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
• 1 large egg
• 2 tablespoons ghee, melted
• 1 tablespoon coarse sea salt

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, whisk together almond flour, tapioca flour, coconut flour, baking soda, and pink sea salt until evenly combined.

Step 3

In a separate smaller bowl, mix the warm water and apple cider vinegar.

Step 4

Slowly add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring continuously with a wooden spatula until a dough forms.

Step 5

Beat the egg in a small bowl, then add it to the dough along with the melted ghee, mixing until a smooth, cohesive dough forms. It should be slightly sticky but manageable.

Step 6

Dust your work surface lightly with tapioca flour. Divide the dough into 8 equal portions.

Step 7

Roll each portion into a long rope about 10 inches in length. Shape each rope into a pretzel knot, twisting the ends and pressing them into the base of the pretzel.

Step 8

Place the formed pretzel knots onto the prepared baking sheet, about an inch apart.

Step 9

Brush each pretzel knot with a little melted ghee and sprinkle coarse sea salt generously over the top.

Step 10

Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until the pretzel knots are golden brown and firm to touch.

Step 11

Allow to cool for a few minutes on a wire rack before serving. Enjoy warm or store in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
