Ingredients
  

Dough

  • 2 ½ cups all purpose flour
  • 1 cup whole milk warm
  • ½ teaspoon instant yeast
  • 2 tablespoon brown sugar
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoon butter melted

Water Bath

  • 1 cup hot water
  • 2 tablespoon baking soda

Pizza Filling

  • 2 cups mozzarella cheese
  • ½ cup pepperoni slices

Toppings & to Serve

  • 1 teaspoon pretzel salt
  • 2 tablespoon butter melted
  • ½ cup marinara sauce

Instructions
 

  • In a stand mixer with a dough hook, add the dough ingredients and knead for 10 minutes. Cover and rest until it doubles in size, about 2 hours.
  • Preheat the oven to 450°F. Place the dough onto a floured surface and divide it into 8 pieces. Form each into a ball by tucking and pinching in the sides towards the middle. 
  • Roll out a piece into a rectangle about 4x7”. Layer mozzarella cheese and pepperoni on the bottom half of the dough.
  • Fold the dough over and pinch the seam to seal. Lightly roll to smooth out the seam and place seam side down on a baking sheet lightly sprayed with oil or lined with parchment paper. Repeat with remaining dough.
  • Prepare the water bath by mixing hot water with baking soda in a bowl. Dip the pretzel logs into the mixture and place them back on the baking sheet.
  • Top pretzels with salt and bake for 8-10 minutes until deep golden brown.
  • Brush with melted butter and serve with warm marinara sauce.

Notes

  • Experiment with your favorite fillings! Sausage, egg and cheese, cheesesteak, pulled pork, and many others!
  • Use coarse salt if you don't have pretzel salt for a classic pretzel look.
