Gourmet Cheese-Stuffed Pretzels 🥨🧀✨ (Page 2 ) | February 7, 2025

---

Instructions:

1️⃣ Prepare the Dough (if using homemade dough):

• Make your pretzel or bread dough following your usual recipe. Let it rise until doubled (about 1 hour). ⏳

2️⃣ Form Stuffed Pretzels:

• Preheat your oven to 200°C (390°F). 🔥
• On a lightly floured surface, divide the dough into 8-10 small portions.
• Flatten each piece into a small rectangle. Place a few cheese cubes in the center and fold the dough to completely encase the cheese. Then, roll the filled dough into a small log (like a boudin).
• Shape each log into a pretzel by crossing the ends and folding them down. 🥨

3️⃣ Bicarbonate Bath:

• In a large saucepan, bring 1 liter of water to a boil. 💧
• Add 1 tbsp baking soda.
• Soak each pretzel in the boiling water for about 20 seconds, then remove with a slotted spoon. This step gives pretzels their classic chewy texture. 🔥

4️⃣ Bake the Pretzels:

• Place the pretzels on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
• Brush the tops with the beaten egg to achieve a golden finish, then sprinkle with coarse salt (or drizzle with melted butter, if desired).
• Bake for 12-15 minutes until golden brown and the cheese inside starts to melt. 🍪✨

5️⃣ Serve:

• Enjoy these gourmet, cheesy stuffed pretzels warm as a delightful snack or appetizer! 😋
