Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 1/2 cups All-Purpose Flour
  • 2 1/4 teaspoons Instant Yeast (1 packet)
  • 1 1/4 cups Warm Water
  • 2 tablespoons Granulated Sugar
  • 2 teaspoons Salt
  • 2 tablespoons Unsalted Butter, melted
  • 1/3 cup Baking Soda (for water bath)
  • 1 1/2 cups Mozzarella Cheese, shredded
  • 1/2 cup Provolone Cheese, sliced
  • 1/2 cup Cooked Spinach, squeezed dry
  • 1/2 cup Roasted Red Peppers, sliced
  • 1 teaspoon Garlic Powder
  • 1 Egg, beaten (for wash)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Mix warm water, sugar, and yeast. Let sit until foamy. Add flour, salt, and melted butter. Knead until smooth. Let rise 1 hour.
  3. Bring a large pot of water to a boil and stir in baking soda.
  4. Roll dough into a rectangle. Layer mozzarella, provolone, spinach, and roasted peppers down the center. Sprinkle with garlic powder.
  5. Fold dough sides over filling and pinch to seal into a loaf.
  6. Dip loaf carefully into boiling baking soda water for 30 seconds, then transfer to baking sheet.
  7. Brush loaf with beaten egg and bake 25–30 minutes until golden brown.
  8. Cool slightly before slicing. Serve warm with mustard or dipping sauce.

Notes

  • Don’t skip the baking soda bath—it gives true pretzel flavor.
  • Brush loaf with butter after baking for shine.
  • Cool slightly before slicing to keep fillings intact.
  • Sprinkle with coarse sea salt before baking for authentic pretzel taste.
