Soft Pretzel Bites Ingredients :
- 1/2 cup Milk
- 1/4 cup Water
- 1 tbsp Brown Sugar
- 1/2 packet of Yeast (1 1/8 tsp)
- 1 cup Bread Flour
- 1 cup All- Purpose Flour
- 1 tsp Salt
- 1 1/2 tbsp melted Butter
- Pretzel Salt (for topping)
*Tips:
- Boil Pretzels in a Baking Soda Bath prior to baking for a shiny crust. This gadget makes the process easy and fast! amzn.to/3fyjA1e
- This bench scraper is very helpful to slice the perfectly sized pretzel bites with your dough! amzn.to/2PsZ4Ew
- Pretzel Salt is optional, however kosher salt melts into your pretzel during baking and loses its texture. For best taste results, I recommend Pretzel Salt amzn.to/2XxN2Or
Baking Soda Bath: (do this process prior to baking)
- 1/3 cup Baking Soda
- large pot of boiling Water
Egg Wash:
- 1 Egg Yolk
- 1 tbsp Water

Tip: use a damp (not TOO wet) towel instead of plastic wrap for when your let your dough rise, it help the dough rise a bit more
Pro tip 😂
this is the best recipe!!! i made it and even though it takes a while and some hard work, they results are amazing. they are delicious and taste just like auntie annes!! thank you so much. i would highly recommend this
Hi Jenna 🤗 Thank you so much for taking the time to try out this recipe💕I agree, great things take time. Glad to know you enjoyed your delicious snack🥨
It does take alot of work. I made these like 10 years ago but was so worth it. I was actually wanting to make them again so I looked this up. I love the Cinnamon sugar ones as well.
Jamie Monroe They must have been really delicious and memorable for you to remember them from years ago! Thank you for watching my video 🥨 the Cinnamon sugar are delightful- i'm a sweets fan!
Also these reheat super well in the air fryer! I put mine at 200 degrees (the lowest temperature on my air fryer) & cook them for about 5 minutes or until they’re warm again. They get crispy again just like when you first made them.
Such a great recipe! I didn't have bread flour on hand, so I only used all purpose flour. 1 and 3/4 cup was more than enough. After the pretzels were cooked i brushed them in butter, and dipped them in yellow mustard. Yummy 😋
YUM!!! Auntie Anne's are my favorite pretzels, so I can't wait to try this!!
If you love Auntie Anne's you will definitely love these! Can't wait for you to try ❤️
Wow thank you!! Can’t wait to try this!!

Really smarty ❤️
Aaah!! I love Auntie Annes and I love this video❤️
auntie annes is the best ❤️💕 im so happy you enjoyed, thank you for watching
Cristina in the Kitchen no prob💕
So tiny and tasty. And the pretzels look great too.
0:11 the way that baker whipped that dough rod in shape was dope
I just made these and they were Delish! I sprinkled “Everything but the Bagel” seasoning from TraderJoes on a few. It was over the top!👌🏽
Hello Doctor! Thank you for sharing that suggestion, that seasoning is one of my favorites. Hope you enjoyed 🥨
Every time I go to the mall I MUST have an Annes’s almond pretzel!! Or a jalapeño pretzel from Wetzel’s Pretzel.
Those are very unique flavors !! 🥨 Thank you for sharing your favorites, almond and pretzel combination sounds delicious. Jalapeños and just about anything spicy are the absolute BEST snack 🌶️
Love this pretzel with cinnamon
Thank you ❤️ I love the cinnamon ones too ! Hope you enjoyed hun
Omgg I want to make this now. Watching this at midnight is definitely not a good idea🤦🏻♀️I’m hungry and want this like right now!! Definitely will try this recipe.. thank you for sharing love it!!!
hi girl 💕 sorry for making you hungry!! you should get the ingredients and make it for a night when you have snack cravings 🤗 thank you for watching!!
Auntie Anne's has a buttery flavor...how do I copy cat that? I really want to try this recipe. Looks so good.
Loveeee pretzels😋😋😋
thank you for watching 🤗
Yum! New subscriber here 🙋🏻
I’m coming over 😂❤️
Come over for a pretzel party 💕
Can i use all purpose flour only?
yummos
Going to use this to make rods ,bites are good but I really enjoy rods unsalted and can’t find them,so I’ll make some,this was short and too the point,thank you,also can’t eat eggs ,so I’ll skip that,or use butter (margarine) any serious egg substitute suggestions?
This is by far the best pretzel recipe out there!! I like to dip them in butter and add some cinnamon and sugar on top and they are just like Auntie Anne’s!!! You must try them if you’re a pretzel lover!
Hi Brooke!! Thank you so much for trying out the recipe💕 I'm so happy you enjoyed them and it was great to hear your feedback about the cinnamon sugar and air fryer!! That is so awesome I need to try that. Enjoy🥨 and Happy New Year 😃
Would it work with just 2 cups of all purpose flour?
I live in New York too
Very beautiful
I need to try these! Could you tell me what happens if you don’t divide the flour between all-purpose and bread?
I only use bread flour when making my pretzel bites,it gives them a really nice fluffy texture. You can use whatever flour you prefer they will still taste yummy.
Also now I have a reason to buy one of those chop things from dollar tree AND WE HAVE THE SAME MICROWAVE lol
Cat Jimenez you have to get it!!! its so helpful when youre making dough like life changing , and thats too funny 😂 microwave twins !
I don’t have a stand mixer…😢 how do I manually do this part?
How many regular size pretzels would this make?
Quick questions: if I wanted it buttered, should I place all bites in a big bowl and pour melted butter and mix and/or place ld and shake? Do I have to use bread flour or can I just use all purpose flour Only? If I double the recipe, how do I store the unused dough? Looking forward to hearing back. Thank you..
If you want it buttered after cooking it in the oven butter them and let them cool you can use all purpose flour ik bc somebody else said it turned out good with all purpose flour too
Every time I go shopping at the mall I always stop by at Auntie Anne's for pretzel and cheese haha! I will totally make these at home when I have all the ingredients! Great video!! What is the cheese you used in the beginning of the video or did. you make that too? 😍
LifestylewithNina hi nina i can so relate with you 🥨 , i am so excited for you to try them ❤️💕 i did make my own however the recipe is not perfect yet , but i would recommend this one to you 🤗 ua-cam.com/video/O0ISihe4DfE/v-deo.html
Cristina in the Kitchen okay! Thank you so much!! 💜
Cristina in the Kitchen wow thanks a lot! I bet yours is really good too but I’ll check this out!
How do you prevent them from sticking to parchment paper ??? Will the egg wash with water work ? Please help
Hi may I know wats d difference of bread flour and all purpose flour? Is there any other alternate that we cud use instead of bread flour?
Hi Shermin! 🥨 Great question, bread flour has a higher protein content that gives the pretzel a chewy texture. I have experimented with all purpose flour as well but the finished product is more similar to a dinner roll than a nice, chewy pretzel. Hope that helps! Let me know if you have any other questions 😃
These look super good! Im planning to try them tomorrow but I don't have a thermometer to check the temperature of the milk. Is there any other way for me to be sure of the temperature?
Hi Valarie!! 🥨 My grandma did not use a thermometer when making bread, so it is definitely possible. I recommend for your milk to be warm but not too hot- too high of a temperature can kill your yeast. Microwave for about 30 seconds and check, then 5 seconds at a time until warm. Check that your yeast is bubbling so it has properly activated for the dough- hope that helps! Let me know how they turn out 🤗💕
@@SugarMagicbyCristina will do! tysm :D
You are most welcome Valarie! Have fun 🤗
@@SugarMagicbyCristina super sorry this late (I made it 3 days ago) but these were AMAZING! They tasted just like auntie annes, and for mothers day my mom loved them! Tysm for this recipe, I'm gonna use it whenever I wanna make pretzels :)
I'm soo happy to hear that you liked them and the recipe worked for you 💕🥨 and a Happy Mother's Day to your mom! Next time you make them it would be so cool if you sent me a picture of your delicious pretzels 🤗
Can you freeze this ?
Hi! I just found you on a Facebook UA-cam group. I can tell already that I’ll enjoy the rest of your videos! I’m a new UA-camr too and I make some cooking videos since June. These bites look easy and I wouldn’t have ever thought to make them but now I have to! New subscriber!
Hi love and welcome 💕🤗 im happy you came across this video and thank you so much!!! you need to try them
Where can I buy bread flour from? Can't wait to try this ❤️❤️
King aurthers at grocery
Any tricks if I don’t have a dough hook or stand mixer?
Hi! Great question, you can knead the dough by hand but it will just take some more time, until it is smooth and elastic it is good to go 🥨 Hope you give it a try sometime!
i don't have any bread flour, can u make these with just all-purpose flour?
Hi 💕! I have experimented with this recipe using all-purpose flour as well, but it makes the texture more similar to a dinner roll. The bread flour makes it more chewy like a pretzel because of its higher protein content! Hope that helps 🥨
Can I make these with out bread flour, because for some reason my local grocery store is out of it , I been to four stores 🤦🏽♀️
Hi Love! Sorry to hear about your inconvenience. You can use regular flour but the texture won't be as chewy, instead it will more soft. If you don't mind that you can give it a try. There is King Arthur Bread Flour on Amazon if you still want to use the bread flour ❤️
👍👍👍👍💕
I can't wait to bake these! Whenever I head to the mall I BEG my parents to buy me some auntie Anne's pretzels! I have all the ingredients but there's something I wanna check. I don't have white salt or pretzel salt, only pink salt. Do you know if that will that work with the pretzels? Im heading to the store later today so I just wanna see if I can save some ingredients?
Hi girl 💕🥨 I love Auntie Anne's too! You can definitely try it, but the salt might melt into the pretzels when they bake. If the pink salt is a coarser grain, it can possibly work out! I did a test with white salt and pretzel salt but I had the best results closest to Auntie Anne's with the pretzel salt, it was a lot better. If you make the recipe I'd love to know how they turn out 💕🥨
@@SugarMagicbyCristina phew tysm! Im lucky it actually is in a coarser grain. Tmrw I'll be baking them so I''ll be sure to tell you how it turns out! :)
Hi. Are you using light brown sugar or dark brown sugar?
Hi Candi! I used light brown sugar 🥨 hope you try them out soon and enjoy making them 💕
Any suggestion for an egg substitute? You can taste them a bit much, unless I did something wrong. Otherwise this was an excellent recipe
Maybe put butter instead?
Try milk wash
do you have to use bread flour?
Hi there! I have experimented with this recipe using regular flour as well, it makes the texture is more similar to a dinner roll. The bread flour makes it more chewy like a pretzel because of its higher protein content! Hope that helps 🥨
Wow,,, Are you that small ? or is the countertop higher then normal ??
I don't have packets of yeast so can you please tell my how much yeast is half a packet.
Hi💕 it is 1 1/8 teaspoons or 3.5 grams, Hope you enjoy making the pretzel bites! 🥨
How much yeast is half a packet?
Hi Agnes! Half a packet is 2 1/4 teaspoons of Yeast 💕🥨 Hope you enjoy this recipe!
WOULD LOVE TO SEE MORE RECIPES IF ONLY I COULD HEAR YOU.
Hi! Sorry about that, this video was the audio with the old mic that I used when I first started my channel. I have a new one with much better sound now 🙏
Is it 1/2 cup of milk or is it 3/4 like in the description box? They look delicious 😋
Thank you hun 💕 It is 1/2 cup, it becomes 3/4 when you add 1/4 cup of water. Hope you try them out 🥨
Roughly how many bites does this recipe yield?
Im a little confused becuse in the description box it said “3/4 cups of milk” but in the vid it said “1/2 cups of milk” I added 3/4 cups of milk and it messed up the yeast part and I had too start over, can you please fix that?
Hi Vianna! 1/2 cup of milk + 1/4 cup of water= 3/4 cup of milk total, those are equal amounts, so your recipe will work 🤗 Apologize for any mix-ups
@@SugarMagicbyCristina thank you for telling me that! I think I added 3/4 cups of milk too 1/4 cups of water.
You're welcome hun! Please let me know how they turn out💕
Can u sub the milk with water?
Hi Aiyanna! 💕 Yes water would work, I use milk because it gives the pretzel bites a lighter texture but water is fine too! Hope you try making them soon 🤗
@@SugarMagicbyCristina what about the temperature of the oven
@@THEHORSELOVER235 I was looking for that one too lol
😔I had to use so much flour maybe bc I live in a hot climate, I hope it tastes okay
For the Indiapolis 500
I don’t know what half a packet of yeast is I only have a big container of yeast
Can't get my yeast to bubble. On my second packet now. And nothing. Not shore how many I can actually put inside before it's ruined. The water and butter mix
Did you make sure it was the right temperature? Or maybe you put too much yeast
@@Levaquaria it was 115 degrees. And maybe I did add too much. But I had another back that worked. And seems in this box most are not working.
@@thetruthnevertold ohhh then it was too hot, no problem! It has to be between 100-110, easy fix
@@Levaquaria dam I thought I seen between 110 to 120
@@Levaquaria oh wait I have an automatic bread machine and it did not rise. Or it did rise but then collapsed it would not stay risen
Thanks for the free (I was told to say this and that I'm an asshole) pretzel bites today!! Sweet dipping sauces would be, well, sweet, like different jams jellies and maybe marshmallow, chocolate, and caramel. Probably keep the salt for All.
She ate my brothers 😥
How much is a half packet of yeast??
Hi Kourtney! Half a packet yeast is equivalent to 1 1/8 tsp, hope that helps and you make some pretzels soon 🥨 let me know if you have any more questions 💕
@@SugarMagicbyCristina how important is bread flour. I was going to make the dough on my lunch but I only have all purpose on hand
I have experimented with this recipe using all-purpose flour as well, but it makes the texture more similar to a dinner roll. The bread flour makes it more chewy like a pretzel because of its higher protein content! So bread flour will make it as close to a pretzel as possible 🥨
@@SugarMagicbyCristina these were delicious 🤤 the fondue video isn’t linked. I hope you have more savory recipes coming!!
I’m not sure what I did wrong but mine came out burnt and doughy. They smell amazing but the taste is something 😂😂😂😂
How much is half a packet
Hi Miss! It is equal to 1 1/8 tsp of Yeast , hope you make the pretzels soon 🥨🤗
@@SugarMagicbyCristina this explains why it was too wet ... the dough DOUGH!!
WHAT TEMPERATURE FOR THE OVEN?!?
Hi At 2:14 I mentioned to preheat to 450 Fahrenheit
@@SugarMagicbyCristina Oh thank you sorry caps lock didn’t even realize
I missed it too! I even went back and watched again.. lol.. 🤦🏽♀️
My dough is too wet even after covering it ugh:(
I worked at Auntie Anne's pretzel they never deep fried only oven baked
Can we stop and admire how beautiful she is 🥰🥰🥰🥰
