Last time we were at the mall we treated Munchkin to some pretzel bites. They were soft tender, chewy and delicious.
I knew right then I needed to come up with a homemade version. I sure did! I honestly didn't realize they would be THIS good.
But, they were and we ate them for dinner. True story. No, not with dinner. FOR dinner. Yes, they are that good.
Munchkin went nuts over these with the cheese sauce and Chad and I may have eaten our weight in pretzel bites, but it is well worth it!

Soft Pretzel Bites
A soft and tender pretzel with the most subtle sweetness is the recipe you have been dreaming of. Even better, they are ready in just 30 minutes. Quick and easy you can make these with or without a mixer!
prep time: 22 MINScook time: 8 MINStotal time: 30 mins
Ingredients
- 2¼ teaspoons active dry yeast
- 1¼ cups warm milk (110°-120°F)
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 3¼ cups all purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- ½ cup baking soda
- 1 large egg
- coarse salt (or pretzel salt)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 450°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or spray with cooking spray.
- Pour milk into the bowl of a stand mixer (see cooks note if you do not have a stand mixer), sprinkle yeast over top, add honey and stir. Allow yeast to bloom for 5-10 minutes. Once it is nice and foamy, it is ready.
- Fill an 8 quart pot with water and bring to a boil over medium high heat. In a small bowl beat egg and 2 tablespoons water with a fork. Set aside. Wash a section of counter top for rolling out dough. Do not flour it or it will be harder to roll out the dough.
- Add flour and salt to mixer. Knead for about 3 minutes until the dough comes together in one ball. Add more flour a tablespoon at a time as needed, if bread is too sticky to come together. Dough should be tacky when you pull it out of the mixer, not sticky.
- Place dough on counter top and form dough into a ball. We are going to cut this ball into 64 (somewhat) even pieces. First quarter the ball of dough. Roll each quarter into an 18-22” strand. Cut that into 4 equal pieces. Then cut each piece into 4 equal pieces. I used a bench scraper but a butter knife will work fine. When you are done you will have 64 pieces.
- Carefully, add baking soda to boiling water. USE CAUTION: IT WILL BUBBLE UP. Place dough bites into boiling water about 10 at a time. Remove with a slotted spoon after 30 seconds. Place on parchment paper to cool and repeat until all bites have been boiled.
- Arrange all pretzel bites on parchment so they are not touching. Brush egg wash onto each one and sprinkle with coarse salt.
- Bake for 7-9 minutes until the tops are browned.
- Enjoy!
