Bretzel Rolls

Hungry for some dinner rolls that are amazing?  They literally taste like a soft pretzel. We've never had a guest eat just one....in fact, my dad, who is on a low carb diet ate 4 the other night.

 

Place ingredients listed  below into a bread maker:

• 1 and 1/3 cups warm water
• 2 Tablespoons warm milk
• 2 and 1/3 teaspoons active dry yeast
• 1/3 cup light  brown sugar
• 2 Tablespoons butter, melted
• 4 cups all purpose flour

After running the dough cycle on your bread maker. Take out dough and cut into 12 even pieces shaped into rolls or form knots and arrange on a lightly floured surface about 1 inch apart and covered in plastic wrap. Let the pretzels rise.  

Preheat oven to 425 degrees. 

In a large stockpot, bring 2 quarts cold water to a rolling boil. Add 1/2 cup baking soda. Drop rolls into the  boiling water and boil for no more than 30 seconds, turning once. Remove with a slotted spoon. Sprinkle rolls with kosher salt or pretzel salt. Arrange rolls on baking sheet and bake for 8-10 minutes or until browned.  Serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy!
