  • Total Time: 45 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x
  • Diet: Vegetarian

Description

Delicious and fluffy soft pretzel bites that are easy to make and perfect for snacking during movie nights or gatherings.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 packet (2 1/4 tsp) active dry yeast
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup warm water
  • 2 tablespoons butter, melted
  • Coarse salt, for sprinkling

Instructions

  1. Activate the yeast: In a bowl, mix warm water, active dry yeast, and brown sugar. Let it sit for about 5 minutes until it becomes frothy.
  2. Combine ingredients: In a larger mixing bowl, mix flour and salt. Gradually combine this with the yeast mixture and melted butter until a dough forms.
  3. Knead the dough: On a floured surface, knead the dough for about 5 minutes until it’s smooth and elastic.
  4. Let it rise: Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it, and let it rise for approximately 60 minutes or until doubled in size.
  5. Preheat oven: While the dough rises, preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
  6. Shape the bites: Once risen, divide the dough into small pieces and roll them into bite-sized balls.
  7. Prepare for boiling: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. In a pot, bring water to a boil and add some baking soda.
  8. Boil the pretzel bites: Carefully place the dough balls into the boiling water for about 30 seconds, then return them to the baking sheet.
  9. Butter and salt: Brush with melted butter and generously sprinkle with coarse salt.
  10. Bake: Bake for 12-15 minutes, until they are golden brown. Enjoy warm!

Notes

Serve with warm cheese dip or spicy mustard for an irresistible treat. They can be stored in an airtight container for up to 2 days or frozen for up to a month.
