Description

Chia seeds. Yes, the same seeds that you grew your chia pet from. Who knew they were so good for you? Chia seeds are a super-source of omega-3 fatty acids. And, unlike flax seeds, our bodies can access the nutrients without the seeds being ground!

These pretzels are so easy and quick to make!

Ingredients

  • 1 package Baker's Yeast, 0.25 Ounce Packet
  • 1-⅓ cup Warm Water (100-110 Degrees F)
  • ⅓ cups Brown Sugar
  • 2 cups Wheat Flour
  • 2 cups All-purpose Flour
  • 3 Tablespoons Chia Seeds

Preparation

Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.

In a large bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water. Once yeast is dissolved, add brown sugar and stir until dissolved. Add flours and continue to mix until combined (I used my hands once flour was moistened). Add more flour if dough is sticky (sticks to your fingers). Knead dough until smooth.

Break dough into 14 even pieces. Roll out pieces into 8-10″ strips. Twist into pretzel shapes and place on a baking sheet sprayed lightly with cooking spray. Use a pastry brush to brush water lightly onto each pretzel. Sprinkle each pretzel with chia seeds.

Bake for 5-8 minutes, or until cooked through.

This is one of my favorite recipes! I found chia seeds in bulk at my local health food store. They have a great nutty flavor and a TON of omega 3s.
