Directions: |
Directions:1. In a large bowl, combine the yeast, warm water and sugar. Add in the flour and salt and knead until smooth (you can use your hands, or you can use a stand mixer with a dough hook for this part).
2. Grease a second bowl with nonstick cooking spray and place the dough into the bowl. Cover with greased plastic wrap or a clean dish towel and let rise for 30 minutes in a warm place.
3. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Line 2-baking sheets with parchment paper mats.
4. Divide the dough into 8 equal parts. Roll each part into a rope about 24 to 26 inches long and form into a pretzel shape ( there are all kinds of videos on YouTube to show you how to form a pretzel).
5. In a shallow bowl, combine water and baking soda. Submerge each pretzel in the water and then place on the prepared baking sheets. Sprinkle with salt. Let the pretzels rest for 5 to 10 minutes.
6. Bake 12 to 15 minutes, or until golden brown. Brush each hot baked pretzel with melted butter immediately after taking them out of the oven. |

Notes: These are so good! I baked four of these as called for in the recipe with kosher salt. The other four I baked plain. When they were done, they all got brushed with melted butter. I then sprinkled the plain ones with cinnamon and sugar. I never knew homemade soft pretzels were this easy to make! These are really fun to make with kids! Paisley helped me, and she could form the pretzel in the correct shape.
