Classic Soft Pretzels

Hi lately I’ve been getting into baking and cooking and then I thought of pretzels and just thought, I’ll make that.

Hope you like them!

1: 4 1/2 cups flour

2: 1 1/2 cups warm water

3: 1 tablespoon sugar

4: 1 tablespoon salt

5: 2 tablespoons oil

6: 1 packet active dry yeast

7: 1 beaten egg

8: Coarse salt

9: Pastry brush

10: Baking sheet

11: Large bowl

12: Plastic wrap

13: Spoon or fork (For stirring)

Put your water into your large bowl.

Add your yeast, sugar, and salt (non-coarse) and let sit for 5 minutes. Than stir.

Add your flour.

Add in your oil, mine looks weird for whatever reason but yours shouldn’t

Knead and stir until a nice tough dough.

Set outside or in a warm area for 55-60 minutes.

Cut your dough into 12-13 equal pieces.

Roll the dough into a thin rope (you can make it any size you would like just not to thin) make a rabbits head and twist the ends down to make a pretzel.

Put your pretzel on the baking sheet.

Dip your pastry brush in the beaten egg and pretty much paint the pretzels with it. Next sprinkle coarse salt over the pretzel.

Put them in the oven at 450 Fahrenheit for 15 minutes.

Now eat and enjoy!
