Check out this yummy pretzel recipe so you can do it at home or in your own preschool!!2 1/2 cups warm water
2 TBSP yeast
2/3 cup brown sugar
1 tsp vanilla
1 tsp salt
about 7 cups flour
2 TBSP baking soda
1 cup boiling water
1/2 cup melted butter
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Dissolve yeast in warm water and let set until activated. Add brown sugar, vanilla and salt. Add flour one cup at a time until mixture isn't moist. You may need a little less flour or a little more. Let rise for 30 minutes.
Let the fun begin!! Form balls of dough about the size of small fists. Roll dough into a thin rope (emphasis on thin) and twist into desired shape. Have flour available to roll and shape in.
While pretzels are being shaped, boil water and baking soda in a saucepan. Make sure baking soda is dissolved and then keep very warm.
After pretzels are shaped, dip them in the baking soda water and then placed the dipped pretzels on a cookie sheet. You can sprinkle with Kosher salt if you want (I don't like the salt) and then bake for about 8 to 10 minutes. When they come out, brush them with melted butter!!
These really are so yummy!

We try to do a cooking activity at least twice a week... this would be great. Quick, simple, and enough ingredients that everyone gets a turn :) Thanks for the recipe.
Love this idea! We are going to try it ourselves and pass along the wonderful idea. Thanks!

You know, I have never tried making my own pretzels at school or home. I really need to do this. It looks so fun and I love pretzels.
I was so impessed with how yummy these were.(I tried Brynlie's) I love to get them at the mall, but they cost alot, and I had never had really good homemade ones. Thanks for the recipe.
Thanks for the great recipe, I'll have to try it out!
