on Jan 16, 2015, Updated Aug 31, 2023 13 Comments My husband has a fascination with making homemade soft pretzels and Sam and I are happily enjoying being his taste-testers and chief dish washers as he makes them each week. I previously shared his soft pretzel recipe, but wanted to show you how to turn them into out of this world pretzel buns that everyone will just go nuts over when you serve them! You’ll follow all the steps in his pretzel recipe for making your pretzel dough, through allowing it to rise, and dividing it into equal portions. Instead of forming into the pretzel shape, you’ll roll with the palm of your hand to form the buns and bathe them in the baking soda and water bath, just as we did in the pretzel recipe. And then bake them until they are golden brown. I like my pretzel buns to be just a hint firmer and darker than my soft pretzels, so the baking time is a bit longer. Adjust it to your preference. Here’s the Mister’s pretzel buns recipe. Make ’em soon! I think you’ll love them! We love them with burgers or pulled pork, as photographed. Enjoy!Robyn xo
