What a great way to get your fiber! Homemade pretzels and healthy too! Taken from Baking With Kids! Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups warm water (100*f. to 110*f.) |
1 (1/4 ounce) envelope active dry yeast |
1 1/2 cups wheat bran |
2 -2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour |
1 tablespoon sugar |
1 teaspoon salt |
1 egg, beaten |
2 teaspoons coarse salt |
Directions:
1. Place water in a large bowl. Sprinkle in yeast; stir until dissolved. Add bran into yeast mixture; let stand 10 minutes.
2. Add 1 cup flour, sugar, and salt. Beat 2 minutes at medium speed of electric mixer, scraping bowl occasionally. Stir in enough remaining flour to make a soft dough.
3. Knead on lightly floured surface until smooth and elastic, about 8 to 10 minutes. Place in greased bowl, turning to grease top. Cover; let rise in warm, draft-free place until doubled in size, about 45 minutes.
4. Punch dough down; turn out onto lightly floured surface. Divide dough into 12 equal pieces. Roll each piece to 13-inch rope; shape into pretzels. Place on greased baking sheet. Brush lightly with beaten egg; sprinkle with salt.
5. Bake at 425oF for15 to 20 minutes or until done.
6. Remove from sheet; cool on wire rack. Enjoy!
