I had a craving for pretzels
But there's not one place near me that sells Vegan pretzels *sigh*.
Lucky me however, I have no problem with making my own as I love to cook and bake!:) I looked up a recipe and found this one : Vegan Soft Pretzels . Thus my pretzel journey began.
The first few times I had attempted pretzels back in he day I failed miserably. My guess as to why they came out terribly was likely due to using old yeast. I remember I tried to give my dough an hour of rising time and yet my pretzels came out dry and dense. It was a disaster and I was afraid of failing again! But I carried on with this new recipe because the comments raved that this was the best pretzel recipe out there!
This was after the boiling water/baking soda soak.
And after 15 minutes in the oven at 400 degrees Fahrenheit:
Ta da!!!! :D
I even made a vegan cheese and cream cheese dip!!! (recipe below) They came out nice and golden on the outside with a soft fluffy inside. They were delicious! <3
