- 4 cups all purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons sugar
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 1 1/4 cup warm water
- 2 1/2 teaspoons instant yeast
- 1/2 cup shredded vegan cheese (optional)
- 1 tablespoon garlic, chopped
- 1 teaspoon rosemary
- 1 teaspoon parsley
- 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil (for brushing)
- 4 cups all purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons sugar
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 1 1/4 cup warm water
- 2 1/2 teaspoons instant yeast
- 1/2 cup shredded vegan cheese (optional)
- 1 tablespoon garlic, chopped
- 1 teaspoon rosemary
- 1 teaspoon parsley
- 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil (for brushing)
Directions
1. Pour warm water into a large bowl, add the yeast and sugar let sit for 5 minutes until foamy.
2. Whisk in oil and salt.
3. Add flour and stir until dough forms. Knead for about 15 minutes. You can add 1 – 2 tablespoons of flour if dough is too sticky.
4. Place dough in a bowl that has been lightly greased with oil and let it rise for 50 minutes. Keep dough covered with a plate or a clean tablecloth.
5. Punch the dough after it has risen. Roll into a square and cut strips of 7 centimeter width and 20 centimeter long.
6. Fill the strips with vegan cheese (optional) and fold the dough so the cheese is inside.
7. Roll into a pretzel shape and place on a greased baking tray.
8. Roast chopped garlic and herbs gently in extra virgin olive oil for 2 minutes. Spoon this herb and garlic oil onto the shaped pretzel dough.
9. Bake for 15 minutes or until golden brown. You can brush with more garlic oil after baking.
