Scale
- 1/3 cup honey

- 1/8 cup instant dry yeast
- 1/4 cup butter, melted and cooled*
- 3 3/4 cup all purpose flour
- 2 cups wheat flour

Instructions
- Mix warm water, honey, sugar and yeast. Let stand for 5 minutes, until the mixture starts to foam.
- Mix all purpose and wheat flour with pinch of salt.
- Add butter to yeast mixture and 3 cups of flour mixture. Stir everything with wooden spoon and knead in the rest of the four. The dough will be a little bit sticky.
- Transfer the dough into greased bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Let the dough rise in a warm place for 45 minutes.

- Divide the dough into 12 pieces. Roll out a rope out of each piece and form a pretzel. Place the pretzel on a baking sheet. Repeat the process with the remaining pieces.
- Brush the pretzels with melted butter and let them rest for about 25 minutes.
- Brush the pretzels with butter again and bake them for 8-10 minutes, until they turn golden brown color.
Notes
- I’ve actually used vegan avocado butter simply because that’s what I had.
