Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups almond flour
- 1 cup tapioca starch
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 cup water
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
- 1 tablespoon coarse sea salt for topping
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, tapioca starch, baking soda, and sea salt. Whisk together to ensure the baking soda is evenly distributed.
In a small saucepan or microwave-safe bowl, heat the water to a warm temperature, about 110°F (43°C).
Add the warm water, olive oil, egg, and apple cider vinegar to the dry ingredients. Mix until thoroughly combined, forming a dough. If the dough is too sticky, add a small amount of almond flour until it is workable.
Divide the dough into 8 equal portions. Roll each portion into a rope shape about 1/2 inch thick and cut each rope into 1-inch nuggets.
Place the pretzel nuggets on the prepared baking sheet, about 1 inch apart.
Brush each nugget lightly with a small amount of olive oil or beaten egg, then sprinkle with coarse sea salt.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes, or until golden brown and firm to the touch.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly on a wire rack before serving. Enjoy fresh or store in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
