back porch paleo Post authorNovember 14, 2018 at 7:12 amHi there! In step #1 – the 2/3 cup baking soda is used in the water for dipping the pretzels in before baking. The other time it is listed is in step #3 as part of the pretzel dough. Hope that helps and thanks for checking 🙂 ~Michelle Reply ↓
back porch paleo Post authorJuly 5, 2018 at 8:44 amHi Michelle 🙂 I always use unsweetened, full fat coconut milk for this recipe. I’ve not tested it with sweetened, so it could still work…but can’t say for certain. Hope that helps and thanks for checking! ~Michelle Reply ↓
back porch paleo Post authorJune 16, 2018 at 8:12 pmHello Bean…I’m assuming you’re referring to the process of making the coconut buttermilk and the “c” means cup ~ thanks for checking, hope you enjoy the recipe! ~Michelle Reply ↓
Nicole November 15, 2017 at 5:58 pmI made this tonight and they are delicious! They taste just like a real soft pretzel. My only question is why the inside of my pretzels are gummy? I used a carton of so delicious coconut milk for drinking, is that different than the canned? Maybe I boiled them a little more than 10 seconds? Just thoughts. Thank you so much for giving us the joy of pretzels again. Reply ↓
back porch paleo Post authorNovember 16, 2017 at 9:17 amHi Nicole! Thanks for reaching out! It could very well be the coconut milk…they’re all so different aren’t they. I’ve actually never used the “so delicious” brand of coconut milk. I think that’s the one made for drinking, so maybe it’s “fat” content is less than a can of full fat coconut milk? I use the full fat Native Forest brand. Also, it’s best to let them cool a bit before enjoying, as they do set up a bit as they cool and could be gummy if you eat them while they’re still a bit warm…I know, it’s so hard to wait, believe me!!! Keeping them in the water too long may be an issue…but maybe your oven at 400 is warmer than ours and you could set it at 385-390 and see if that would allow the inside to bake up a bit more before the outside is too dark. Anyways…hope that helps. Please come on over and visit our blog for lots of other tasty treats! ~Michelle https://backporchpaleo.com/ Reply ↓
Ashley S November 4, 2017 at 3:05 pmMy dough is extremely soft and my pretzels won’t hold their shape to even make it to the water bath. So bummed. Reply ↓

back porch paleo Post authorNovember 10, 2017 at 9:08 amOh no Ashley!! That’s no fun when your hoping for a warm pretzel! If the dough just seemed too dry and didn’t hold together, wondering if you might try a different brand of full fat coconut milk…they vary so much from brand to brand. I’m hoping to get a video tutorial put together for this fun recipe after the first of the year, I’m thinking it would be helpful! Please let me know if you have any other questions and be sure to check out our blog for lots of other fun grain free recipes! ~Michelle https://backporchpaleo.com/ Reply ↓

Kristine September 25, 2017 at 12:00 pmHow can I make these into just pretzel bites? Do I cook them differently? Also is there an egg substitute? I am on the aip diet, and I am egg intolerant in general. Thanks! Reply ↓
back porch paleo Post authorSeptember 26, 2017 at 4:30 amHello Kristine! Thanks for reaching out about our yeast free soft pretzels! To make pretzel bites instead, just roll them into little logs about 3-4″ …just as yummy and probably a little less bake time! You should get around 32 bites. Also, if you want to shape the dough into 16 balls and roll them a bit thinner, you can make little pretzel twists. There’s a picture of one we tried there in the picture…super cute!! The egg wash just gives them a nice brown shine so isn’t required, so you could skip the step. However, you could try the flax/water egg substitution for brushing them before baking. This alternative works well in our pie crust, so it’s worth a try here! Sorry I haven’t tried it to know for sure. I’ll provide the link for that pie crust recipe below so you can take note of the egg substitution I’m referring to. ~Michelle “backporchpaleo”https://backporchpaleo.com/recipes-2/on-the-sweet-side/paleo-pie-crust-egg-free/ Reply ↓
