Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup warm water
  • 1 packet active dry yeast
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 cup baking soda
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tablespoon water
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon

Instructions

  1. Activate the Yeast: In a bowl, combine warm water, yeast, and sugar. Let it sit until foamy.
  2. Make the Dough: Add flour and salt to the foamy yeast mixture; mix until a dough forms and knead for about 5 minutes.
  3. Let the Dough Rise: Cover the dough and let it rise for about 30 minutes until it doubles in size.
  4. Preheat the Oven: While the dough is rising, preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
  5. Create the Boiling Solution: In a large pot, bring water and baking soda to a boil.
  6. Shape and Boil the Pretzels: Roll the dough into small pieces and shape them into pretzels. Drop each pretzel into the boiling water for 30 seconds.
  7. Prepare for Baking: Carefully place the boiled pretzels on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  8. Egg Wash Time: Whisk together the egg and water; brush this mixture over the pretzels.
  9. Cinnamon Sugar Sprinkle: Mix the sugar and cinnamon, then sprinkle this mixture generously over each pretzel.
  10. Bake to Perfection: Bake the pretzels for 12-15 minutes until they’re golden brown.
  11. Final Touch with Butter: Brush the pretzels with melted butter after they come out of the oven.

Notes
