Ingredients

Scale

Gluten free all-purpose flour blend (with xanthan gum) 2 cups
Baking powder 1 tsp
Salt 1 tsp
Greek yogurt (or dairy free yogurt) 1 cup
Egg 1
Baking soda (for the water bath) 2 tbsp
Coarse salt (for topping) to taste

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet.
2. Whisk the flour, baking powder, and salt in a bowl.
3. Stir in the yogurt and egg until a soft dough forms.
4. Roll the dough into small bites.
5. Bring a pot of water and baking soda to a gentle boil.
6. Boil the bites for 30 seconds and drain them well.
7. Place the bites on the sheet, brush with egg, and sprinkle coarse salt.
8. Bake for 12 to 14 minutes until golden.

Notes

Keep the dough slightly sticky, but not wet. Do not skip the baking soda bath, because it creates that real pretzel crust. Work in small batches so the bites stay cold. Eat while warm for the best texture.

Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days, or freeze for up to 2 months; reheat in a 350°F oven for 5 minutes. To make dairy free, swap Greek yogurt for dairy-free yogurt. Brush with melted butter or olive oil instead of egg wash. Add garlic powder or cinnamon sugar for extra flavor.

Serve with mustard, cheese sauce, honey mustard, marinara, a green salad, or soup. Make ahead: shape dough and chill overnight, then boil and bake the next day. Use a flour blend that already contains xanthan gum; otherwise, the bites may crumble.

Skipping the baking soda bath is possible, but you lose the classic chewy crust.
