Soft Pretzels
by Dawn Salisbury
Super easy pretzels that are soft and yummy!
Ingredients:
1 frozen loaf of bread
Flour
4 cups hot water
1/2 c. baking soda
Kosher salt (I used regular table salt in a pinch)
2 T. melted butter
Directions:
Raise the frozen loaf according to rapid rise method.
(Heat oven to 200 and boil 1 quart of water. Place the bread in a
greased loaf pan. Place in oven. Pour boiled water into a cookie sheet
on the lower rack. Turn off oven. Wait 2-4 hours or until bread has
risen over the top of the edge of the pan).
Preheat oven to 450. Lightly dust a clean
counter surface. Knead the loaf until no longer sticky. Roll into a log
and slice it into 12 pieces. Roll out the pieces one at a time until
about 20-24 inches. Twist into pretzel shape.
In a large bowl, pour 4 cups of hot water and 1/2 c.
baking soda. Stir until the baking soda is dissolved. Dip each pretzel
in the water and place on a greased cookie sheet.
Cook for 8-10 minutes or until brown on top. Brush
with melted butter and sprinkle salt on top.
