Pretzel Shapes

Wash hands with soap and water.

Preheat oven to 425 °F.

In a small bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water, add honey and let set for a few minutes.

In a large mixing bowl, measure flour and salt.

Add yeast mixture to flour mixture and stir until it forms a smooth ball. Add a little more flour if the dough is sticky.

Knead dough on countertop or dough board until it forms a smooth ball. Add a little flour if the dough is sticky.

Divide dough into 12 pieces about the size of a walnut. Roll each ball into a snake and then twist to make a pretzel, letter, or other fun shape.

Place pretzels on a baking sheet lightly coated with cooking spray. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes until golden brown.
