Mozzarella and Rosemary Pretzel Rings Directions:
-
In a large mixing bowl, combine warm water, sugar substitute, and yeast. Let it sit for 5 minutes until frothy.
-
Add self-rising flour mixture and salt to the yeast mixture and knead until a smooth and elastic dough forms.
-
Cover the bowl with a clean cloth and let the dough rest for 30 minutes to rise slightly.
-
Preheat the oven to 425°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
-
In a small bowl, mix light mozzarella cubes, chopped rosemary, and grated Parmesan cheese for the filling.
-
Divide the dough into 10 equal portions. Roll each into a long rope.
-
Flatten each rope slightly and place a small amount of filling in the center. Fold the dough over the filling and seal the edges, forming a ring shape similar to the reference photo.
-
In a large saucepan, bring 4 cups of water to a boil. Remove from heat and stir in the baking soda until dissolved.
-
Carefully place each pretzel ring into the baking soda bath for 30 seconds, then transfer them to the prepared baking sheet.
-
Sprinkle each pretzel with extra grated Parmesan cheese and garnish with fresh rosemary leaves.
-
Bake for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown and the cheese crust is crispy.
-
Cool for a few minutes before serving.
