Ingredients

Dough

  • 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 2 teaspoons instant yeast
  • 3/4 cup warm water

Filling

  • 200g mozzarella cheese (cut into small cubes)

Baking Soda Bath

  • 4 cups water
  • 1/4 cup baking soda

Topping

  • 2 tablespoons melted butter
  • Coarse salt

Optional Dips

  • Marinara sauce
  • Cheese sauce
  • Garlic butter

Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Dough

In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, salt, sugar, and yeast. Add warm water and mix until a dough forms. Knead for about 8–10 minutes until smooth and elastic. Cover and let it rest for 30 minutes.

Step 2: Shape the Dough

Divide the dough into small pieces. Roll each piece into a rope, then flatten slightly.

Step 3: Wrap the Cheese

Place a cube of mozzarella in the center of each dough piece. Wrap the dough around the cheese, sealing tightly to prevent leaks.

Step 4: Prepare the Baking Soda Bath

Bring water to a boil and add baking soda carefully. Reduce heat.

Step 5: Boil the Bites

Drop each dough ball into the baking soda bath for 20–30 seconds. This step gives the pretzel its signature texture and color.

Step 6: Bake

Preheat oven to 220°C (425°F). Place bites on a lined baking sheet, brush with melted butter, and sprinkle with coarse salt. Bake for 12–15 minutes until deep golden brown.

Step 7: Serve

Serve immediately while warm for the ultimate cheese pull experience.


Pro Tips for Perfect Cheese Pull

  • Seal tightly: Any gaps will cause cheese to leak out
  • Use low-moisture mozzarella: Prevents sogginess
  • Don’t skip the baking soda bath: It’s essential for pretzel texture
  • Serve hot: Cheese pull is best right out of the oven

Flavor Variations

Garlic Parmesan Pretzel Bites

Brush with garlic butter and sprinkle parmesan after baking.

Spicy Jalapeño Version

Add a slice of jalapeño with the cheese for a spicy kick.

Sweet Pretzel Bites

Skip salt and coat in cinnamon sugar, then serve with chocolate dip.
