Gluten Free Soft Pretzels

1 1/2 cups warm water
1 tbsp sugar
2 tsp kosher salt
1 tsp of yeast
4 tbsp butter

1 tbsp vegetable oil
8 cups of water
1/2 cup of baking soda

1 egg with 1 tsp of water

    pretzel salt

*For cinnamon, sugar pretzels
    1 tsp of cinnamon
    1/2 cup sugar

In a bowl, combine warm water, sugar, salt, and yeast. Allow mixture to sit for about 10-15 minutes until foam begins to form on top. 

Add flour and butter and combine well using a dough hook attachment on mixer. Put dough in a bowl that has been oiled with vegetable oil. Cover and allow to rise for an hour and half. 
Preheat oven to 400. Bring 8 cups of water with baking soda to a boil. Roll out dough and shape into pretzel form by making a U shape and crossing the ends back over. 

 


One by one, place pretzels in boiling water until it floats, about 30 seconds. Remove with a slotted spoon and place on a cookie sheet covered with parchment paper. 

 

Beat egg with water and brush the tops of each pretzel. Add *salt or *cinnamon mixture.

 

Bake for about 15 - 20 minutes until brown. Transfer to cooling rack.
