This is the first of several recipes I found ini Better Homes and Gardens Eat Healthy and Lose Weight Cookbook. I have only made homemade pretzels once and they were good. Looking forward to trying these when the weather cools down.
1 lb. frozen whole wheat bread dough, thawed
2 tbsp. grated Parmesan cheese
2 tsp. dried Italian seasoning, crushed
1/4 tsp. garlic powder
1/4 C. light butter with canola oil, melted
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Set aside. Divide dough into 10 equal portions. Roll each portion into a 15 inch long rope. To shape each pretzel, hold one end of a rope in each hand and form a U shape. Cross the ends over each other and then twist. Then lift the ends across to the bottom; press to seal. Arrange shaped pretzels on the prepared baking sheet. Cover with waxed paper; let stand in a warm spot for 20 minutes.
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. In a small bowl stir together Parmesan, Italian seasoning, and garlic powder. Brush pretzels evenly with half of the melted butter then sprinkle with the Parmesan mixture.
Bake for 15 to 18 minutes or until browned. Transfer baking sheet to a wire rack. Drizzle pretzels with remaining melted butter. Serve warm or cool completely.
