The recipe I have chosen to make is sweet and savoury pretzels. I chose to make this dish because I saw it while scrolling through social media and it looked delicious. My sister had previously tried to make it but it didn’t turn out as planned. They were very plain and puffy so I thought I would try the recipe to see if I could fix them. I had to make some changes to the recipe including drizzling them in butter after they came out of the oven, adding more salt, dipping some of the pretzels in brown sugar and cinnamon. I found they came out less puffy and even more flavourful the second time! When they first came out of the oven my mom had to told me they tasted plain so I used what I had available to me and added butter and Himalayan pink salt which totally changed the flavour in a good way. Everyone’s favourite was the brown sugar and cinnamon and they all said the same thing, a definite make again! It was my first time making pretzels and I am very happy with how they turned out.

Recipe:  

  • 1.5 cups flour (little bit extra for the surface)
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 heaping teaspoon sugar
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • a pinch of salt (extra salt for top of pretzels)
  • 2/3 cup milk
  • brown sugar
  • cinnamon
  • 1 egg
