Ingredients
- 2 ¼ tsp active dry yeast
- 1 cup warm water between 90–110°F
- 1 tbsp butter melted
- 1 tsp sugar
- 1 tsp salt
- 3 cups all-purpose flour adjust as needed
- 3 cups water
- 4 tbsp baking soda
- 2 tbsp everything-but-the-bagel seasoning
Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine yeast, warm water, melted butter, sugar, and salt. Stir and let yeast bubble for 5–10 minutes.
- Stir in the flour as needed to form a cohesive dough. It should require approximately 3 cups, but the actual amount can vary a bit based on your specific flour brand. Fold the dough out onto a clean surface and knead for 5 minutes.
- Place dough back into a clean bowl and cover with a clean kitchen towel. Set in a warm spot in your kitchen and allow the pretzel dough to rise until it roughly doubles in size, about 30 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 475°F. Lined a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Boil 3 cups of water and dissolve the baking soda in it. Remove water pot from heat and allow to cool until just warm.
- Divide the pretzel dough into 8 equal pieces, then shape into pretzel shapes.
- To shape dough into pretzels, roll each segment into 1" thick ropes. Form the rope into a U-shape.
- Then take both ends and twist twice at the top. Invert the twisted edges to the bottom of the U-shape and press dough together to secure.
- Quickly dunk the shaped pretzels into the warm baking soda water for 2 minutes, then move them to a lined baking sheet.
- Sprinkle the pretzels with EBTB seasoning.
- Bake for 8–10 minutes or until golden brown.
