Instructions
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. In a large mixing bowl sift together the coconut flour, salt, baking powder, yeast and optional dry seasonings until fully combined and no lumps. Stir in the eggs and melted butter until combined and a smooth dough forms
The dough should be moist but not sticking to hands. I t should be able to hold its shape when rolled into a ball. Scrape down the sides of the bowl and gradually stir in the cheeses until evenly distributed throughout the dough. For a sweet pretzel bite stir in some spices and 1 to 2 TBS of granulated pr brown sweetener.
Use a cookie scoop and scoop the dough out into desired size scoops and place onto the prepared baking sheet. keep about 2 inches of space between each scoop. Roll each scoop into a smooth tight oval shape. Brush each piece lightly with egg wash or melted butter (can use dairy free butter substitute)
Make sure to fully cover each pretzel bite. Place the bites back onto the baking sheet. Remember to keep space between each bite. Sprinkle the bites with the parmesan cheese or topping of choice. Place into the preheated oven. Bake at 400 degrees for 12 to 14 minutes or until brown.
Remove from the oven. Allow to cool on the pan at least 5 minutes to firm up and not burn fingers. Serve warm or cool to room temperature. If desired serve with cheese dip or dip of choice.
