  • Pastry brush

Materials

  • 1½ cups Water luke warm
  • 1¼ tsp Active dry yeast
  • 3 cups All purpose flour  spoon & leveled
  • 1 cups Bread flour
  • 2 tbsp Brown sugar
  • 1¼ tsp Salt

Baking Soda Bath

  • 3 cups Water hot water
  • 2½ tbsp Baking Soda

  • 4 tbsp Salted butter melted

Instructions

  • Stir in both sugar and salt to to dissolve completely.
  • Add in both bread and all purpose flour and knead the dough until it is smooth and is elastic.

Baking Soda Bath Preparation

  • While the dough is rising, prepare the baking soda water bath, mix the 3 cups of hot water and 2½ tablespoons of baking soda together until the baking soda dissolves completely.

Assembling the pretzels

  • With a dough cutter/scrapper or pizza cutter, cut dough into 1/3 cup sections
  • Slowly fill each muffin cavity to a little more than halfway full. (A pastry spatula is helpful in portioning the batter from the blender and into the cavities.) Bake cakes for 20-25 minutes, rotating the pans halfway through baking. Cakes are done when a toothpick inserted into the cakes comes out clean.
  • Preheat oven to 350ºF/180ºC/gas 4. Generously spray two 12-cup muffin pans with cooking spray. Sprinkle the bottom of each cavity with a couple pinches of sugar. Set aside.
