Delightful homemade soft pretzels topped with everything bagel seasoning, perfect for family gatherings and game days.
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup warm water (about 110°F)
- 1 packet active dry yeast
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ⅓ cup baking soda
- 4 cups water (for boiling)
- 2 tablespoons everything bagel seasoning
- 2 tablespoons melted butter (for brushing)
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, combine warm water, sugar, and yeast. Let it sit for 5 minutes until foamy.
- In another bowl, whisk together flour and salt. Gradually add to the yeast mixture, stirring until a dough forms.
- Knead the dough on a floured surface for 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic.
- Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover, and let it rise in a warm area for about 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
- Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Punch down the dough and divide it into 8 pieces. Roll each into a 24-inch rope and shape into a pretzel.
- In a pot, bring 4 cups of water and baking soda to a boil. Boil each pretzel for 30 seconds, then remove and place on the baking sheet.
- Brush each pretzel with melted butter and sprinkle with everything bagel seasoning.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown. Let cool slightly before serving.
