Light Whole Wheat Pretzels

 

 

Recipe source:  Artisan Bread Every Day by Peter Reinharts P.128

Notes:

• Adjusted ingredients to incorporate 25% whole wheat flour.  The resulting ingredients for the dough:
  • 425g Roger’s bread flour
  • 142g Anita’s whole wheat flour
  • 24g brown sugar (next time should use honey)
  • 3g yeast
  • 375g water
  • 11g sea salt
  • 28.5g melted butter
• No need to adjust flour and water content when mixing and kneading
• Very easy and convenient recipe.  Mix the dough at night, put in the fridge for overnight rise, shape and bake the next morning.
• The pretzels came up soft and tasty.
• Next time should try using more whole wheat flour and using honey instead of brown sugar
