Ingredients
- 1 pkg. Active Yeast 2 1/4 teaspoons
- 1 cup warm water about 110 degrees
- 1/4 cup honey
- 3 cups bread flour
- 1 1/4 teaspoon salt
- water
- 3 Tablespoons baking soda
- 1 egg beaten
- 6 Tablespoons butter
- coarse salt
Instructions
- In a small bowl, mix together yeast and warm water. Let start to work and activate for 10 minutes. Stir in honey.
- In a large mixing bowl, add flour and salt. Stir in activated yeast mixture. Using a dough hook, knead for about 5-6 minutes.
- Place dough in a lightly oiled large bowl. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise until doubled in size, about 1 1/2 hours. After it has doubled in size, punch the dough and let rise again for 45 minutes.
- Heat oven to 450 degrees.
- Pour 6 cups of water into the 12-inch skillet and add baking soda. Bring to a boil over high heat.
- Divide the dough into 6 or 8 pieces, depending on how large you want your pretzels to be. Roll each piece into a 20-inch long rope. Shape each rope into a pretzel shape.
- Using a slotted spoon, gently place the pretzels into the boiling water for 45 seconds.
- Remove the pretzels with a slotted spoon and drain well. Place onto the Silpat or parchment paper lined baking sheet.
- In a small bowl, beat egg to make an egg wash.
- Brush egg wash over pretzels. Sprinkle with coarse salt.
- Bake for 11-15 minutes, or until the pretzels are golden brown.
- Generously brush with melted butter on all sides.
