Kids Pretzels Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit (165 degrees Celsius).
• Put the yeast in a small bowl with the water and honey. Stir a little, then let the mixture sit for 5 minutes.
• Mix the flour and salt together in a medium-size bowl.
• After the 5 minutes is up, check on the yeast mixture. It should be bigger than before and a little bubbly. Add this mixture to the flour and salt mixture.
• Stir everything together. Use a spoon to start. Finish with your hands. The dough is ready when it's still a little crumbly and flaky.
• Put the dough on the cutting board and knead it like you are playing with clay. Knead it into one big ball.
• Break off a piece of dough that's about the size of a big gumball or superball. Use your hands to roll it into a skinny snake.
• Twist the snake into a medium-size pretzel shape, and put it on the cookie sheet. Do this with all the dough, making 12 pretzels.
• Bake your pretzels for 10 minutes. Let them cool, add the toppings, and take a bite! I hope you like them! :D.
