cups
all purpose flour
½
tsp
sea salt
½
tbsp

melted butter for topping

Instructions
First, mix the water and yeast together in a bowl.
Add the flour, sugar, and sea salt and mix everything until it’s completely combined.
Knead the dough with your hands or using an electric mixer with a dough hook.
Place the kneaded dough on a lightly floured surface and then roll into ropes.
Cut the dough into 1 inch pieces using a knife. Bathe the pieces in your baking soda bath mixture for 30 seconds.
Spray cooking oil on the basket of the air fryer, add your pretzel bites. Be sure to space them so that they have room to expand.
Cook at 390 for 6 minutes. Remove once done and brush with melted butter. Top with salt to taste!
Notes
If you want sweet pretzel bites, swap the salt topping for cinnamon sugar.
