Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 packet (2 ¼ tsp) active dry yeast
- ¾ cup warm water (110°F/43°C)
- 1 tbsp brown sugar
- 1 tsp salt
- ¼ cup baking soda
- 2 tbsp unsalted butter (melted), plus extra for brushing
- Coarse salt for sprinkling
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, combine warm water, brown sugar, and yeast; let sit for 5 minutes until frothy. Gradually add flour and salt, mixing until combined. Knead on a floured surface for about 5 minutes until smooth.
- Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let rise in a warm spot for about 1 hour or until doubled.
- Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Punch down the risen dough and divide into bite-sized pieces. Shape each piece into knots or balls.
- Boil water in a large pot; add baking soda carefully. Boil each pretzel bite for 30 seconds before removing them with a slotted spoon.
- Arrange boiled bites on parchment-lined baking sheet. Brush with melted butter and sprinkle with coarse salt. Bake for 12-15 minutes until golden brown.
- Serve warm with dipping sauces of your choice.
