Step 1

Add all the ingredients to your bread machine in the order recommended but the manufacturer.

Step 2

Set your machine on the dough setting.

Step 3

When the dough has finished the cycle in the machine it should look like this.

Step 4

Remove from the pan and place on a floured surface.

Step 5

Divide the dough in about 7 to 8 pieces and then roll out with your hands so the dough forms a snakelike shape about 1/2 inch thick.

Step 6

Take your “snake” and form it into a pretzel shape.

Step 7

Dip your pretzel into a pan filled with 2 cups water and 2 tablespoons baking soda. Do not let your pretzels sit in the water or they will taste nasty. Just dip and then set on a baking sheet.

Step 8

If you cover your baking sheet with parchment paper the bottom of the pretzel will not burn and it will also be easier to clean up when you are finished.

Step 9

Let the pretzels rise for about 25 minutes. (the first time I made the soft pretzels I rolled the dough too thick, so when they rose they turned into one big lump.)

Step 10

Bake in a 400 degree over for about 10 minutes. Remove pretzels from the oven and brush with melted butter. Top with coarse salt, or cinnamon and brown sugar.

Step 11

Enjoy!
