Many bakeries in Germany sell these tasty looking fluffy pretzel corners – unfortunately not an option for vegans, so I figured out how to bake my own! And this is how:
RECIPE
for 6 pieces
time: 2 hours and 15 minutes (inactive time 1 hour 40)
INGREDIENTS
2 1/2 cups flour (300 g)
2 teaspoons of dried yeast (7-9 g)
1/2 teaspoons sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup lukewarm water (240 ml)
a little plant oil
1/3 cup vegan butter at room temperature (75 g)
2 tablespoons boiling water
1 teaspoon baking soda
sesame
sea salt
INSTRUCTIONS
Combine flour, yeast, salt and sugar in a bowl, mix, add water and knead for about 10 minutes by hand or with a machine* at medium speed.
Apply a little oil to a bowl and your hands, place the dough in the bowl to let it rise for about 1 hour.
I usually cover it with a damp towel and put it in the oven at around 30°C/ 85°F.
After an hour, the dough should have doubled.
Punch it down to release the air.
Knead again for a moment, roll it into a long baguette and cut in about 12 pieces.
Roll each piece into a circle and apply vegan butter, and pile them up. Don’t apply butter to the last one.
Roll the dough out carefully by only setting the rolling pin down. If you want them to turn out high and fluffy, only roll it out a little bit. If you want them flat and crispy, roll it out into a bigger circle.
Cut it in six pieces, put them on parchment paper on a baking tray,
and let them rest for 20 Minutes.
In the meantime preheat the oven to 210° C/410°F.
After 20 minutes we need 2 tablespoons boiling water and 1 teaspoon baking soda. Stir mixture very carefully and apply to the pretzel corners.
Then sprinkle with salt and sesame and bake golden brown for about 20 minutes.
Serve warm
