2 tablespoons butter, melted
1/4 cup baking soda
1 egg, beaten
Salt for topping
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, yeast, salt, and sugar. Slowly add in the warm water and melted butter, stirring until a soft dough forms.
Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5 minutes, until smooth and elastic.
Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a clean cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
Preheat your oven to 450°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large pot, bring about 2 quarts of water to a boil. Slowly add in the baking soda, stirring until dissolved.
Divide the dough into 8 equal pieces and roll each piece into a long rope. Twist into a pretzel shape and place on the prepared baking sheet.
Carefully dip each pretzel into the boiling water for about 30 seconds, then place back on the baking sheet.
Brush each pretzel with the beaten egg and sprinkle with salt.
Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown.
Let cool for a few minutes before serving and enjoy your homemade New Year's Eve pretzels!
Variations
If you want to add some extra flavor to your pretzels, try sprinkling them with some cinnamon and sugar before baking. You can also experiment with different dips such as mustard or cheese sauce for a savory twist.
For a gluten-free option, substitute the all-purpose flour with almond flour and the active dry yeast with gluten-free yeast.
