Step 2

Add the ingredients to the bread machine in the order listed or according to your manufacturer’s instructions.

Prepare using the dough setting. During the first kneading cycle, check to see if the dough has enough water. If more water is needed, add 1 to 2 tablespoons of warm water.

Step 4

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Prepare a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. Spritz the paper lightly with nonstick cooking spray.

Step 5

When the dough cycle has completed, punch down the dough and flip out onto a lightly floured surface.

Step 6

Divide the dough into 8 equal parts. Roll each piece of dough into long even strands, approximately 20 inches long. Twist into a pretzel shape.

Step 7

In a dutch oven or stock pot, bring the 8 cups of water to a boil. Stir in the baking soda.

Step 8

Gently drop the pretzels (no more than two at a time) into the boiling water. Boil for 10 to 15 seconds and then remove from the water using a slotted spatula. Place the pretzels on the prepared baking sheet.

Bake the pretzels in the oven for 8 to 12 minutes or until lightly browned.
