How to Make Sweet Potato Pretzels
- In a large bowl, combine warm water, sugar, and salt. Sprinkle yeast over the mixture and let stand for 5-10 minutes until foamy.
- Add the melted butter, mashed sweet potato, and egg to the yeast mixture. Gradually add the flour, mixing until a soft dough forms.
- Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 5-7 minutes, until smooth and elastic. Add more flour if needed to prevent sticking.
- Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, turning to coat. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place for 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and place a wire rack on top. This will help the pretzels crisp up.
- Punch down the dough and divide it into 8 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a 24-inch long rope. Shape each rope into a pretzel.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the egg yolk and 1 tablespoon of water.
- Place the pretzels on the prepared baking sheet. Brush each pretzel with the egg wash and sprinkle generously with coarse sea salt.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until golden brown and crisp. Let cool slightly on the baking sheet before serving.
