Seasoned with everything bagel spice which worked well. Ended up using much more flour (measured by mass not volume) perhaps due to "extra smooth flour " obtained in Honduras and cooking in an environment with high humidity. This is the best " bread" recipe I have made baking at a beach house.

Fabulous! This is the same recipe whether you make knots or bites, so I chose bites this time around. This is quick and easy to make, smells wonderful as it cooks, and tastes delicious to eat. I served them with soup, and I think we all filled up on the pretzels 😂 Family declared them delicious too.

I was positively surprised how easy it was to prepare. One of the quickest yeast-dough recipes I have seen. I made bites with bread flour (wheat 850) and all kneading in the food processor. Bites were crunchy on the outside and fluffy in the inside, just as they should be. Definitely will do again and I will try cinnamon version.

Probably cook them for less time, but besides that they were great. I added melted butter after to the salted ones, they needed it.
