Method
 

Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and prepare your baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the paleo flour, crushed Crisp Power Protein Pretzels, baking powder, monk fruit sweetener, salt, vanilla extract, Greek yogurt, and beaten egg until a cohesive dough forms.
  3. Transfer the dough onto a lightly floured surface, knead gently for 1-2 minutes, then cut into bite-sized pieces.
  4. Prepare the pretzel wash by mixing water with a small amount of baking soda, and use a pastry brush to coat each bite.
  5. Place the coated bites on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 12-13 minutes until golden brown.
  6. Combine the brown monk fruit and cinnamon, then toss the warm bites in this mixture for a sweet coating.
