Here's a recipe for keto pretzels that aims to be as delicious as Auntie Anne's, using cottage cheese to add a unique twist and ensuring the dough remains elastic before cooking:
Keto Cottage Cheese Pretzels
Ingredients:
2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
2 oz cream cheese
1/2 cup cottage cheese
1 1/2 cups almond flour
1 tbsp baking powder
1 tsp xanthan gum (for elasticity)
1 large egg
1/2 tsp salt
Coarse salt for sprinkling
2 tbsp melted butter (for brushing)
Instructions:
Preheat Oven:
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Prepare the Cheese Mixture:
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the shredded mozzarella and cream cheese. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until the cheeses are melted and well combined.
Mix the Dry Ingredients:
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the almond flour, baking powder, xanthan gum, and salt.
Combine Ingredients:
Add the melted cheese mixture and cottage cheese to the dry ingredients. Mix until a dough forms. You may need to use your hands to knead it together thoroughly.
Add the Egg:
Add the egg to the dough mixture and continue to knead until fully incorporated. The dough should be smooth and elastic.
Shape the Pretzels:
Divide the dough into 6-8 equal parts. Roll each part into a long rope and then shape into a pretzel.
Bake:
Place the pretzels on the prepared baking sheet. Brush each pretzel with melted butter and sprinkle with coarse salt.
Bake and Serve:
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the pretzels are golden brown. Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly before serving.
Enjoy your keto pretzels! They should be chewy, soft, and reminiscent of Auntie Anne's, with the added benefit of being low-carb and incorporating cottage cheese for a unique texture and flavor.
