Directions
Pizza Pretzels, We used to be able to buy these from a local bakery, but I can’t find them anymore My daughter was going into withdrawal, so I came up with these They are great to store in the freezer nuke them for a couple minutes and you have a quick snack or lunch! (Rising time included in prep time), I made these for lunch today and my family and I loved them (especially my daughter) used a 1 lb bag of Trader Joe’s pizza dough and Pastorelli pizza sauce Sprinkled the sauce with a little Italian blend seasoning Mine took about 8 minutes longer to bake but I think that’s because my prezel twisting skills are a bit amateurish and my prezels ended up looking like baseballs With a little practice, I think I can get these a bit flatter They were very delicious, baseballs or not! Thanks for this recipe Karen, my daughter took 2 of them back to her dorm with her!
