Cinnamon Sugar Pretzel Bites

 

Ingredients:

For the Dough:

  • All-purpose flour: 2 cups
  • Instant yeast: 1 teaspoon
  • Sugar: 1 tablespoon
  • Salt: ½ teaspoon
  • Warm water: ¾ cup
  • Butter (melted): 2 tablespoons

For the Baking Soda Bath:

  • Water: 4 cups
  • Baking soda: ¼ cup

For the Cinnamon Sugar Coating:

  • Granulated sugar: ½ cup
  • Cinnamon powder: 2 teaspoons
  • Butter (melted): 2 tablespoons

Instructions:

1. Make the Dough:

  1. In a large bowl, combine warm water, sugar, and yeast. Let it sit for 5 minutes until frothy.
  2. Add the melted butter, salt, and flour. Mix until a soft dough forms.
  3. Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for about 5 minutes until smooth.
  4. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover, and let it rise for 30–45 minutes or until doubled in size.

2. Shape the Pretzel Bites:

  1. Punch down the dough and divide it into 4 equal parts.
  2. Roll each part into a long rope (about ½ inch thick).
  3. Cut each rope into 1-inch pieces to form bite-sized pretzels.

3. Prepare the Baking Soda Bath:

  1. Bring 4 cups of water to a boil in a saucepan.
  2. Stir in the baking soda until dissolved.
  3. Drop the pretzel bites into the water in small batches (about 10–15 pieces at a time). Let them boil for 30 seconds.
  4. Remove with a slotted spoon and place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet.

4. Bake the Pretzel Bites:

  1. Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F).
  2. Brush the boiled pretzel bites with melted butter.
  3. Bake for 10–12 minutes or until golden brown.

5. Coat with Cinnamon Sugar:

  1. Mix the sugar and cinnamon in a shallow bowl.
  2. Brush the warm pretzel bites with melted butter and toss them in the cinnamon sugar mixture until well coated.

Serve:

Enjoy your cinnamon sugar pretzel bites warm. Optionally, serve with a cream cheese dip or a vanilla glaze for an extra treat!

Tips for Perfect Pretzel Bites:

  • Baking Soda Bath: This step gives the pretzels their chewy texture and classic flavor, so don’t skip it.
  • Softness: Keep an eye on the oven; overbaking can make them too firm.
  • Make Ahead: You can freeze unbaked pretzel bites and bake them later.
