Easy Soft Pretzels

4 servings Source yield

Ingredients

  • 1 pound frozen bread dough, thawed
  • 1 egg white
  • 1 tablespoon water
  • 1 teaspoon kosher (coarse) salt

Make it step by step

  1. Coat two large rimmed baking sheets with nonstick cooking spray. Cut the dough into four equal pieces. On a lightly floured surface, roll each piece into a 24-inch rope, form into a pretzel shape and place on the baking sheets.
  2. In a small bowl, beat together the egg white and water, brush over the top of each pretzel. Sprinkle evenly with the salt. Loosely cover with plastic wrap and set aside in a warm place to rise for 15 minutes.
  3. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Remove the plastic wrap and bake for 15 to 17 minutes or until golden. Serve warm.
