In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, instant yeast, brown sugar, and salt.
Gradually add the warm water to the dry ingredients. Mix until a dough forms.
Knead the dough on a floured surface for 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover, and let it rest for about 10 minutes.
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
Divide the rested dough into 8 equal pieces.
Roll each piece into a rope approximately 18 inches long, then tie each rope into a knot.
In a large pot, bring 6 cups of water to a boil and carefully add the baking soda.
Using a slotted spoon, dip each pretzel knot into the baking soda bath for about 30 seconds. Drain well and place on the prepared baking sheets.
Brush each pretzel knot with melted vegan butter and sprinkle with coarse salt.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly before serving.
