Garlic Parmesan Pretzels

Recipe Description

These Garlic Parmesan Pretzels are super tasty and delicious! They are the perfect snack to make for a holiday movie night! Did you know that a pretzel’s chewy crust is achieved by coating it in a baking soda bath before baking it in the oven? Simply place baking soda in a shallow bowl filled with warm water. Whisk together until the baking soda dissolves. Brush baking soda solution onto each pretzel.

To make these pretzels, start by stretching and rolling 6 pieces of dough into long rectangles. Sprinkle cheese into the center of each rectangle and roll the dough tightly like a rope, making sure no cheese is visible. Twist and shape the rolls into a pretzel shape and transfer to a baking pan. Brush the baking soda solution onto each pretzel and leave to dry. Brush with melted butter and sprinkle with garlic powder, more Parmesan and parsley. Bake until golden.

To make Garlic Parmesan Pretzels, you will need the following ingredients:
