Whole Wheat Soft Pretzels - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 pkg. active yeast
1 1/2 c. warm water (105~ to 115~)
2 1/2 c. flour (all-purpose)
2 tsp. sugar
1/2 tsp. salt
1 to 1 1/2 c. flour (whole wheat)
1 egg
1 Tbsp. cold water
1 to 2 Tbsp. coarse salt

Preparation

Dissolve yeast in warm water in large bowl.
(If water is too hot, yeast will be killed and will not work.)
Add all-purpose flour, sugar and salt; beat on low speed until moistened.
Beat on medium speed, scraping bowl occasionally, 3 minutes.
Stir in enough whole wheat flour to make dough easy to handle.
Turn dough onto lightly floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, about 5 minutes.
