Im planning on making this recipe this weekend. What would you use to replace the flour mix?

Im not sure if Im going to use Pamela's Ultimate Baking and Pancake mix or Amazing wheat free bread mix. Im assuming Pamela's Ultimate Mix would be better since there is already baking soda added and the bread mix has sugar, honey and molasses and that just sounds too sweet for a real pretzel taste.

I hope it works out good! Im planning on having some with cinnamon and sugar and some with cheese. Im also going to make it just in the style of breadsticks instead of twisting it.

Thanks for any help

Well since no one answered yet, I guess Im going with the ultimate baking mix. I'll post and let you know how it turns out Im wanting tonight so Im off to the store.

Keep us posted. I miss soft pretzels...

I am interested too. I live outside of Philly, so there are soft pretzel places practically at every corner. I miss them too. VERY MUCH. My favorite lunch used to be a Philly pretzel with spicy deli mustard. We'd stop on the way home (literally a store on the corner of my street) from grocery shopping EVERY time. Haven't been able to stop for the kids. they miss them too!

I don't know if you started yet but if it were me, I would definately go with the Pamela's. When I have used the Pamela's mix though I still add baking powder. It makes thinks lighter IMO. Good luck and let us all know, we are waiting with baited breath!

Well, Im sorry to dissapoint you all but it did not turn out good. I had to add a whole cup of extra water and it still came out dry. I wasnt able to use pamela's since my health food store was out, I used a mix that had a bean flour in it. Im still going to work on it since I really, really miss soft pretzels too. Next time Im going to try pamela's ultimate baking mix and cut it down by 2 cups at least of baking mix and mix it in my bread maker. It was frustrating to do it by hand and kneed it and make a mess of my kitchen for hockey pucks but Im determined I'll eventually figure this out and I'll add a little extra baking powder.

I'll let you know how it goes the next time

Miss Roben's has a pretzel mix to make soft pretzels. I tried it once and it wasn't bad at all. It is $5.19 for the mix.

Thanks so much Jessica Im going to see if they can order through my health food store since if I like it and order a case I get 20% off.

Bummer that the recipe didn't work!

I have a recipe in a cookbook by Cybele Pascal in The Whole Foods Allergy Cookbook.

I've been wanting to try it, but just haven't. I'll try to make it and report back. Think I have all the ingredients!

Thanks Cheri

If it works out let us know.

I've used that kind. Very good. Daughter loves them!

You read my mind!!! I've been missing soft pretzels for MONTHS!! Yes, please post and tell me how they worked out. Can u ship them?? lol. I never seem to have the time or patience to bake them. someone needs to start a company. I will pay. lol.

hey, I just noticed we share the same first name. awesome. lol.

OK, Carleigh is enjoying them right now with mustard. I couldn't get them to make shapes, but I made sticks out of them. They weren't "pretty", but she likes them. If anyone would like the recipe, I'd be happy to PM it to you.

I would love the recipe! thanks so much !

If you don't want to make these from scratch I have heard there are ready made ones that are gluten-free. I think if you goggle Noah's soft gluten-free pretzels. I don't know if they ship out yet.

Thanks I'm off to look them up.

Just flying through.... I'll PM that recipe to you later on, GFF!

Thanks Cheri
