Preheat your oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, combine almond flour, baking powder, xanthan gum, and salt.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg and Greek yogurt until smooth.
Add the wet mixture to the dry ingredients and stir until a dough forms.
Melt the butter and let it cool slightly, then incorporate into the dough until well mixed.
Place the dough onto a flat surface covered with parchment paper. Use your hands to roll the dough into a thick log, about 1 inch in diameter.
Cut the log into 1-inch segments to create bite-sized nibblers.
In a small bowl, mix two tablespoons of baking soda with 1 cup of hot water until dissolved.
Dip each piece of pretzel dough into the baking soda solution using a slotted spoon and place it back onto the parchment-lined baking sheet.
Sprinkle the tops with a pinch of coarse sea salt.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the pretzel nibblers are golden brown.
Remove from oven and let them cool slightly on a wire rack before serving.
