Homemade Soft Pretzels
Diana

1 ½ cup warmed milk
1 tbsp yeast
3 tbsp sugar
Pour warmed milk over yeast and sugar in mixing bowl. Let sit 5 min.

Add 1 tsp salt and 3 cups flour and mix well. Continue to add flour until the sides of the bowl just start coming clean. Knead 2 – 3 min. Dust hands with flour or spray with Pam cooking spray. Take peach size lump of dough and shape into a pretzel or other fun shape. Put on greased cookie sheet and brush with beaten egg. Sprinkle with coarse salt. Bake at 425 degrees for 12 – 15 min. Brush with melted butter when they come out of the oven.

Note: I use this dough for pizza crust and my pepperoni bread, I just let it rest or raise for 15 min. first. It’s a very yummy dough for lots of things! I also use this around hot dogs and breakfast yummies with cinnamon and sugar.
