I didn’t think that I was going to be able to pull this keto recipe off.

I mean, a pretzel has to be crispy on the outside and soft and chewy in the middle, right? How was that going to work for low-carb?

With patience and persistence, my friends… I’ll tell you that when I finally nailed this recipe, I nearly ate the whole tray, they awe THAT good!

It's made with a similar grain-free dough that we used for our keto Panini with the addition of xanthan gum. A note, so that you don’t get as frustrated as I did; the addition of xanthan gum makes this fat head dough feel completely different when you are working it.

Don’t panic! This grain-free and keto dough is supposed to feel firmer and almost crumblier. Just keep shaping them the best you can. If you need to, warm them for 5 seconds in the microwave to make them a bit more pliable. Enjoy!
