Painless Pretzel Bites

August 26, 2012

These pretzel bites were super easy and really delicious! Andrew and I cleaned up our plate in no time flat! Here's how you make them:

You will need:
1 1/2 c. warm water
1 packet dry active yeast
1 Tbs. sugar
4 c. Flour
1/2 tsp. salt
2 or 3 eggs
Coarse salt (for sprinkling on top)
1 Tbs. unsalted butter
Parchment paper

Preheat oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit.
In a large bowl, combine 1 1/2 c. warm water and packet of yeast. Leave for two minutes. Next, add sugar and mix until sugar is dissolved.

When sugar is dissolved, mix in four cups of flour and 1/2 tsp. of salt. The dough should be crumbly.

Turn dough out onto clean, flowered surface and knead a few times with floured hands until smooth.
Separate dough into five sections and make some snakes!
Cut each section of dough into 1 inch pieces.

Crack eggs into small bowl, beat the eggs, and coat each pretzel bite in a layer of egg.
Place bites on parchment paper (wax paper will melt!)
Sprinkle with coarse salt and pop them into the oven for 8-10 minutes until the bites are golden brown.
Spread melted butter on the tops and sprinkle more coarse salt on top if desired.

Voila! C'est très délicieux!
