Soft Dough Pretzel Recipe

Im planning on making this recipe this weekend. What would you use to replace the flour mix?

Im not sure if Im going to use Pamela's Ultimate Baking and Pancake mix or Amazing wheat free bread mix. Im assuming Pamela's Ultimate Mix would be better since there is already baking soda added and the bread mix has sugar, honey and molasses and that just sounds too sweet for a real pretzel taste.

I hope it works out good! Im planning on having some with cinnamon and sugar and some with cheese. Im also going to make it just in the style of breadsticks instead of twisting it.

Thanks for any help :)

I am interested too. I live outside of Philly, so there are soft pretzel places practically at every corner. I miss them too. VERY MUCH. My favorite lunch used to be a Philly pretzel with spicy deli mustard. We'd stop on the way home (literally a store on the corner of my street) from grocery shopping EVERY time. Haven't been able to stop for the kids. :( they miss them too!

I don't know if you started yet but if it were me, I would definately go with the Pamela's. When I have used the Pamela's mix though I still add baking powder. It makes thinks lighter IMO. Good luck and let us all know, we are waiting with baited breath!

Well, Im sorry to dissapoint you all but it did not turn out good. I had to add a whole cup of extra water and it still came out dry. I wasnt able to use pamela's since my health food store was out, I used a mix that had a bean flour in it. Im still going to work on it since I really, really miss soft pretzels too. Next time Im going to try pamela's ultimate baking mix and cut it down by 2 cups at least of baking mix and mix it in my bread maker. It was frustrating to do it by hand and kneed it and make a mess of my kitchen for hockey pucks <_< but Im determined I'll eventually figure this out and I'll add a little extra baking powder.

I'll let you know how it goes the next time :)

Miss Roben's has a pretzel mix to make soft pretzels. I tried it once and it wasn't bad at all. It is $5.19 for the mix.

Bummer that the recipe didn't work!

I have a recipe in a cookbook by Cybele Pascal in The Whole Foods Allergy Cookbook.

I've been wanting to try it, but just haven't. I'll try to make it and report back. Think I have all the ingredients!

OK, Carleigh is enjoying them right now with mustard. I couldn't get them to make shapes, but I made sticks out of them. They weren't "pretty", but she likes them. If anyone would like the recipe, I'd be happy to PM it to you.

If you don't want to make these from scratch I have heard there are ready made ones that are gluten-free. I think if you goggle Noah's soft gluten-free pretzels. I don't know if they ship out yet.

      I do not know this, but since they are labelled gluten-free, and are not really a product that could easily be contaminated when making them (there would be not flour in the air of such a facility, for example), I don't really see contamination as something to be concerned about for this type of product.

      @Jane02, I hear you about the kale and collard greens.  I don't do dairy and must eat green leafies, too, to get sufficient calcium.  I must be very careful because some calcium supplements are made from ground up crustacean shells.  When I was deficient in Vitamin D, I took high doses of Vitamin D to correct the deficiency quickly.  This is safe and nontoxic.  Vitamin D level should be above 70 nmol/L.  Lifeguards and indigenous Pacific Islanders typically have levels between 80-100 nmol/L.   Levels lower than this are based on amount needed to prevent disease like rickets and osteomalacia. We need more thiamine when we're physically ill, emotionally and mentally stressed, and if we exercise like an athlete or laborer.  We need more thiamine if we eat a diet high in simple carbohydrates.  For every 500 kcal of carbohydrates, we need 500-1000 mg more of thiamine to process the carbs into energy.  If there's insufficient thiamine the carbs get stored as fat.  Again, recommended levels set for thiamine are based on minimum amounts needed to prevent disease.  This is often not adequate for optimum health, nor sufficient for people with absorption problems such as Celiac disease.  Gluten free processed foods are not enriched with vitamins like their gluten containing counterparts.  Adding a B Complex and additional thiamine improves health for Celiacs.  Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.  Thiamine helps the mitochondria in cells to function.  Thiamine interacts with each of the other B vitamins.  They are all water soluble and easily excreted if not needed. Interesting Reading: Clinical trial: B vitamins improve health in patients with coeliac disease living on a gluten-free diet https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19154566/ Safety and effectiveness of vitamin D mega-dose: A systematic review https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34857184/ High dose dietary vitamin D allocates surplus calories to muscle and growth instead of fat via modulation of myostatin and leptin signaling https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38766160/ Safety of High-Dose Vitamin D Supplementation: Secondary Analysis of a Randomized Controlled Trial https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31746327/ Vitamins and Celiac Disease: Beyond Vitamin D https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11857425/ Investigating the therapeutic potential of tryptophan and vitamin A in modulating immune responses in celiac disease: an experimental study https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40178602/ Investigating the Impact of Vitamin A and Amino Acids on Immune Responses in Celiac Disease Patients https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10814138/

      Thank you so much @knitty kitty for this insightful information! I would have never considered fractionated coconut oil to be a potential source of GI upset. I will consider all the info you shared. Very interesting about the Thiamine deficiency.  I've tracked daily averages of my intake in a nutrition software. The only nutrient I can't consistently meet from my diet is vitamin D. Calcium is a hit and miss as I rely on vegetables, dark leafy greens as a major source, for my calcium intake. I'm able to meet it when I either eat or juice a bundle of kale or collard greens daily haha. My thiamine intake is roughly 120% of my needs, although I do recognize that I may not be absorbing all of these nutrients consistently with intermittent unintentional exposures to gluten.  My vitamin A intake is roughly 900% (~6400 mcg/d) of my needs as I eat a lot of sweet potato, although since it's plant-derived vitamin A (beta-carotene) apparently it's not likely to cause toxicity.  Thanks again!

      Hello, @Jane02,  I take Naturewise D 3.  It contains olive oil.   Some Vitamin D supplements, like D Drops, are made with fractionated coconut oil which can cause digestive upsets.  Fractionated coconut oil is not the same as coconut oil used for cooking.  Fractionated coconut oil has been treated for longer shelf life, so it won't go bad in the jar, and thus may be irritating to the digestive system. I avoid supplements made with soy because many people with Celiac Disease also react to soy.  Mixed tocopherols, an ingredient in Thornes Vitamin D, may be sourced from soy oil.  Kirkland's has soy on its ingredient list. I avoid things that might contain or be exposed to crustaceans, like Metagenics says on its label.  I have a crustacean/shellfish/fish allergy.  I like Life Extension Bioactive Complete B Complex.  I take additional Thiamine B 1 in the form Benfotiamine which helps the intestines heal, Life Extension MegaBenfotiamine. Thiamine is needed to activate Vitamin D.   Low thiamine can make one feel like they are getting glutened after a meal containing lots of simple carbohydrates like white rice, or processed gluten free foods like cookies and pasta.   It's rare to have a single vitamin deficiency.  The water soluble B Complex vitamins should be supplemented together with additional Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine and Thiamine TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) to correct subclinical deficiencies that don't show up on blood tests.  These are subclinical deficiencies within organs and tissues.  Blood is a transportation system.  The body will deplete tissues and organs in order to keep a supply of thiamine in the bloodstream going to the brain and heart.   If you're low in Vitamin D, you may well be low in other fat soluble vitamins like Vitamin A and Vitamin K. Have you seen a dietician?
