easy soft pretzels

Easy & Delicious Soft Pretzels 🥨🥨🥨

RECIPE ⬇️

What you’ll need:

✨2 and 1/4 teaspoons (7g) instant or active dry yeast (1 standard packet)

✨1 Tablespoon brown sugar

✨1 and 1/2 cups warm water (around 100°F)

✨1 Tablespoon unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled

✨1 teaspoon salt

✨3 and 3/4 cups to about 4 cups all-purpose flour (spooned & leveled), plus more as needed as you mix the dough to the correct texture

✨coarse sea salt (topping before baking)

✨butter (for tops of pretzels after baking)

For the baking soda bath:

✨1/2 cup (120g) baking soda

✨9 cups (2.13L) water

Tips:

🥨 your dough should be soft & slightly tacky. It shouldn’t be sticky. Poke at it with your finger until your finger comes away mostly clean and the dough feels like it will bounce back. It should pull away from the sides of the bowl.

🥨 Use a slotted spatula when removing pretzels from the baking soda bath. The baking soda bath is strongly recommended for that classic soft pretzel taste!!
