I loves my bread machine! So, very, very much. She makes all sorts of yummy for me. I love it when I can get my kiddo involved in the process. Because I enjoy being Mrs. Awesome Snack Mom we decided to break out this treat when we had friends over.
Put the following in the bread machine in this order
1 cup plus 2 tablespoons of warm water
3 cups of all-purpose flour
3 tablespoons of brown sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons of active dry yeast
Set it to the dough cycle and let it work its magic.
When you hear the beep run to your bread machine and with floured, cleaned hands and a floured surface let your kids sculpt, shape and mold.
Meanwhile add 8 cups of water and 1/2 cup of baking soda in a large saucepan. Let it come to a boil. Drop the pretzel shapes into the boiling baking soda water for 10 seconds. Drain on paper towels.
Sprinkle with some Kosher salt and pop it in a 325 degree oven for 8-10 minutes or until golden brown.
Watch the excited little faces as they see their browned beauties emerge from the oven.
