    Auntie Anne's Pretzels

    The first Auntie Anne's pretzel store opened in 1988 in the heart of pretzel country -- a Pennsylvanian
    Amish farmers' market. Over 500 stores later, Auntie Anne's is one of the most requested secret clone
    recipes on the Internet. Many of the recipes passed around the Web require bread flour, and some use
    honey as a sweetener. But, by analyzing the Auntie Anne's home pretzel-making kit in the secret
    underground laboratory we can determine a better solution for recreating the delicious mall treats than any
    other recipe out there. For the best quality dough, all-purpose flour is what you need. And powdered sugar
    can be used to perfectly sweeten the stuff. Take your pick from salted pretzels, or the cinnamon/sugar
    coated kind, and crank the oven up real hot.

    1 1/4 cups warm water


    1 tablespoon plus 1/4 teaspoon yeast
    3 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
    3/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
    1 1/2 teaspoons salt
    2 teaspoons vegetable oil

    Bath
    4 cups warm water
    1/2 cup baking soda

    1/4 cup butter, melted


    kosher or pretzel salt

    Cinnamon Topping
    1/2 cup granulated sugar
    2 teaspoons cinnamon
    Give the dough a twist, then fold the top down and pinch to attach. Glue is not required.

    1. Dissolve the yeast in the warm water in a small bowl or cup. Let it sit for a few minutes.
    2. Combine flour, powdered sugar and salt in a large mixing bowl. Add water with yeast and vegetable oil.
    Stir with a spoon and then use your hands to form the dough into a ball. Knead the dough for 5 minutes on
    a lightly floured surface. Dough will be nice and smooth when it's ready. Place the dough into a lightly oiled
    bowl, cover it and, and store it in a warm place for about 45 minutes or until the dough doubles in size.
    3. When dough has risen, preheat oven to 425 degrees.
    4. Make a bath for the pretzels by combining the baking soda with the warm water and stir until baking soda
    is mostly dissolved.
    5. Remove the dough from the bowl and divide it into 8 even portions. Roll each portion on a flat non-
    floured surface until it is about 3 feet long. Pick up both ends of the dough and give it a little spin so the
    middle of the dough spins around once. Lay the dough down with the loop nearest to you. Fold the ends
    down toward you and pinch to attach them to the bottom of the loop. The twist should be in the middle.
    6. Holding the pinched ends, dip each pretzel into the bath solution. Put each pretzel on a paper towel for a
    moment to blot the excess liquid. Arrange the pretzels on a baking sheet sprayed with non-stick spray. If
    you want salt, sprinkle pretzels with kosher or pretzel salt. Don't salt any pretzels you plan to coat with
    cinnamon/sugar. You will likely have to use two baking sheets, and be sure to bake them separately. Bake
    the the pretzels for 4 minutes, then spin the pan halfway around and bake for another 4 to 5 minutes or
    until the pretzels are golden brown.
    7. Remove the pretzels from the oven, and let them cool for a couple minutes. If you want to eat some now,
    brush 'em with melted butter first, if desired, before serving. If you want the cinnamon/sugar coating make
    it by combining the 1/2 cup sugar and 2 teaspoons cinnamon in a small bowl. Brush the unsalted pretzels
    you plan to coat with a generous amount of melted butter. Sprinkle a heavy coating of the cinnamon/sugar
    onto the entire surface of the pretzels over a plate. Munch out. (http://www.topsecretrecipes.com)
