Homemade Pretzel Bites

We have always enjoyed making pretzels at home, preparing the dough and counting down the minutes ’till they are freshly baked out of the oven. Then I have stumbled upon a big secret tip that took everything to a new level….suddenly it was so much quicker and easier to make pretzels!

What if I tell you that you don’t have to worry about making your dough, knead and everything and still have these perfect pretzel bites? How? So simple….using store bought fresh pizza dough and boiling the pretzels in water combined with baking soda before getting them into the oven.

This secret tip has made such a big difference between those sometimes average pretzels and golden, crunchy bites this recipe can deliver! They are the perfect party food! The pretzels are soft, chewy, salty and amazingly good dipped in your favorite sauce!

Just please, make sure you add the baking soda slowly and in small quantities because it will bubble up so fast….and we don’t want anyone getting burnt.

If you are a pretzel loving family, this recipe will become really fast one of your favorites! Maximum 20 minutes and almost no effort at all and you’ll get these Homemade Pretzel Bites ready to be served!
