What You Need

  • 3 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons table salt
  • Kosher Salt for Topping
  • 1 teaspoons vegetable oil
  • 1 teaspoon butter (melted)
  • 3/4 cup plus 1 tablespoons powdered sugar
  • 1 tablespoon plus 1/2 teaspoon active dry yeast
  • 1 1/4 cups + 2 tablespoons warm water

 

What To Do

 – Prepare yeast as instructed on the packet

– Add oil to the yeast and stir.

– In a separate bowl mix place powdered sugar, butter, flour and salt. Mix. Place yeast mixture into the dry ingredient bowl.

Flour a surface and knead the dough for about 10 minutes.

Place dough in a covered bowl ( I use plastic wrap) and let it rest for about an hour at 80 degrees. Dough should double in size.

Preheat oven at 425

Take dough and cut into 8 sections. And roll into a long rope.

Below is a video on how to make the pretzel shape.

Prepare a baking soda water bath with 2 cups warm water and 2 tbsp baking soda. ( It will give the pretzel that wonderful brown color).

Dip each pretzel into the bath.

Place pretzel on to parchment paper on top of a baking sheet.

Bake for about 10 minutes or until pretzel is brown.

Blush melted butter (optional ) onto each and sprinkle salt on top.
