Ingredients
Dough:3.5 oz all purpose flour 9 oz whole wheat flour½ tsp sea salt1 tsp sugar1 tbsp instant yeast½ cup warm water½ cup warm unsweetened soy milk---Topping:½ cup warm water1 ½ tbsp baking sodacoarse sea salt, for sprinkling
Directions
By hand:
Combine all the dough ingredients in a large bowl and stir with a sturdy spoon until a dough forms.
Turn out the dough onto a floured surface and knead for 10 minutes. The dough should feel soft and smooth, not sticky to the touch.

In a mixer:
Combine all the dough ingredients in the bowl of a stand mixer and knead on medium low speed for 5 minutes. The dough should feel soft and smooth, not sticky to the touch.

Shaping and Baking:
Cover and let rise for 30 minutes.
Heat the oven to 450F, and line two baking sheets with parchment paper, greased foil or a silicone liner.
Divide the dough into 10 pieces.
Working one at a time, roll each piece of dough into a long rope and shape into a pretzel. Place onto the prepared baking sheets, 5 to each sheet.
Whisk the warm water and baking soda in a small bowl and heat in the microwave for 1 minute. (It will not dissolve completely, and that’s okay!)
Brush each pretzel with the baking soda mixture and sprinkle with coarse sea salt.
Let rest for 10 minutes.
Bake, one sheet at a time, for 9 minutes or until the pretzels are golden brown.
