Ingredients

2 1/2 teaspoons yeast

1 1/2 cups warm water

1 teaspoon salt

1 tablespoon sugar

5 cups flour

In large bowl combine water and yeast. Add sugar and salt. Add flour until you have a stiff, pliable dough.

Place on floured surface and knead 5 to 8 minutes. Shape as you like (not too thick though).

Brush with beaten egg, sprinkle with pretzel salt.

Bake at 425 degrees for 5 minutes or until golden.

This is a fun recipe to make with kids: let the kids knead the dough and shape the pretzels as they like.
