Ingredients

Baker's Percentages

• Bread Dough

100% all purpose flour (use as baseline)

74% water

0.7% yeast

1.1% salt

6.6% unsalted butter

45.1% granulated sugar

0.61% cinnamon

One Batch Measurements

Bread dough (made the night before, see the Let's Make Bread recipe)

2 Tablespoons butter

1/3 cup granulated sugar

1 teaspoon cinnamon

Directions

• 1) Preheat oven for 425 degrees F.
• 2) Lightly flour the flat surface you will be using to shape the dough.
• 3) Take chunks of the dough and shape it into whatever shape you wish (I did pretzel shapes and made braids using three stands of dough)
• 4) Take a cookie sheet and line it with parchment paper.
• 5) Place the pretzels onto the cookie sheet, and bake them in the oven for about 10 minutes.
• 6) While the pretzels are baking, mix together the sugar and cinnamon. Set that aside.
• 7) Just before you take the pretzels out of the oven, melt the butter in the microwave.
• 8) Using a brush, apply the butter onto the pretzels. Use all of it.
• 9) Sprinkle the cinnamon sugar mix over the pretzel for a light dusting (using too much can create a hard crust on the finished product)
• 10) Place them back into the oven for another 5 minutes at 425 degrees F (do not broil them)
• 11) Remove from oven and let cool.
• 12) Enjoy!
