Preparation Steps
1
Warm the water and milk until lukewarm. The liquid should be lukewarm to properly activate the yeast. In a small bowl, dissolve the sugar and yeast in the lukewarm water, and let it rest for 5-10 minutes until foamy.
2
Sift the flour into a large bowl, add the salt, and mix. Pour in the yeast mixture, then add the butter. Knead the dough well until it becomes smooth and elastic. If needed, add a little water to prevent it from becoming too dry.
3
Let the dough rest in a warm place, covered, for 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
4
Once the dough has risen, turn it out onto a work surface and divide it into 8-10 equal pieces. Roll each piece into long strands, then shape them into pretzels.
5
Place the pretzels on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Before placing them in the oven, brush them with a little water and sprinkle with sesame seeds.
6
Bake the pretzels for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown and fragrant.
7
Once baked, let them cool slightly. Peel, core, and dice the figs into small cubes. In a skillet, sauté the figs in a little butter, then sprinkle with cinnamon.
8
Serve the fig pretzels fresh to enjoy the perfect combination of figs and soft dough.
