Brie-Stuffed Soft Pretzels with Rosemary & Sea Salt  
 
 
Includes 6 Pretzels
 
Recipe:
 
Prep time: 1 hour 10 mins
Cook time: 13 mins
Total time: 1 hour 23 mins
Serves: 8 pretzels
Ingredients
  • 1½ cup warm water
  • 1 Tbsp sugar
  • 2 tsp sea salt
  • 2¼ tsp instant yeast
  • 4½ cups flour
  • ½ stick (2oz) butter, melted
  • 220g brie cheese, sliced
  • 8 cups water
  • ½ cup baking soda
  • Olive oil, for brushing
  • Sea salt
  • Fresh rosemary, for garnish
Instructions
  1. In the bowl of a stand mixer, mix together water, sugar, salt and yeast; let sit for 5 minutes until frothy. Using the dough hook, add the flour and butter, mixing on low speed until dough pulls away from the sides of the bowl, approximately 5 minutes. Transfer dough to a lightly oiled bowl, cover with plastic wrap and set aside in a warm place for about an hour or until the dough has doubled in size.
  2. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and divide into 8 equal pieces. Roll each piece into an 18-inch rope, then flatten rope so it's more of a long rectangle. Place brie cheese in the center, then roll dough back into a rope shape, pinching the edges to ensure all the cheese is completely encased in the dough. Shape into pretzels.
  3. When ready to eat, preheat the oven to 425°. Line two large baking sheets with parchment paper; set aside.
  4. Bring the water and baking soda to a boil in a pot.
  5. Using a flat spatula, drop the pretzels into the boiling water and boil for 30 seconds. Depending on the size of your pot you may need to boil one at a time. Remove pretzels from the water, drain and place on the baking sheets. Brush the top of each pretzel with olive oil, sprinkle with sea salt and fresh rosemary. Bake until golden and puffed, 12-14 minutes. If the pretzels were frozen, bake for an extra 1 to 2 minutes. Serve warm.
Notes
If freezing, once all pretzels have been rolled and shaped (step 2), place on a baking sheet and freeze, transferring to a ziploc bag once solid. When ready to eat, remove from freezer (don't thaw!) and continue with step 3, boiling for 45 seconds and baking for 13-15 minutes.
