These are going to be a huge hit in your household. The bread is hard and salty on the outside and soft and chewy on the inside - the perfect baked pretzel dog. If you've had pretzels from those places in the mall, these are just as good (maybe better!) at a fraction of the cost. Fun for kids and adults! Serve with your favorite...

Steps:
- 1. Add honey to the warm water and stir to dissolve (you can use sugar if you don't have honey). Stir in yeast and set aside until foamy. (5-10 min)
- 2. In a large bowl, mix about 3 cups of bread flour and the 1 tsp. of kosher salt together. Add the melted butter & yeast mixture. Add the remaining 1 1/2 cups flour a little at a time until the dough pulls away from the sides of the bowl. Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface until smooth and elastic (about 8-10 min). I use my Kitchen-Aid mixer with a dough hook for this.
- 3. Put dough in an oiled bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Let rise in a warm place until double (about 1 hour).
- 4. When dough is ready, roll out on a lightly oiled surface to about 10 x 20 inches.
- 5. Slice the dough into 1 inch wide strips. Wrap the dough around each hot dog, making sure to pinch the edges at each end. There should be about 1/2 inch of hot dog at each end showing. If you have any dough left over after wrapping your hot dogs, roll them into strips and shape into a pretzel. :)
- 6. Bring the 10 cups of water to a boil and then add the baking soda and stir to dissolve. Add the dough-wrapped hot dogs a few at a time, and boil for about 30 seconds.
- 7. Remove with a large slotted spoon and place on 2 greased baking sheets (or use parchment paper).
- 8. Mix the egg yolk and 1 tablespoon water together, and brush on the pretzel dogs.
- 9. Sprinkle with kosher salt if you like, and then bake in a preheated 425-450 oven for about 15 minutes, until golden brown.
- 10. Remove from pans and let cool slightly...and then enjoy!

[email protected]These pretzel dogs were just okay. The dough was a little bland, and the pretzels were a little dry. The hot dogs were also a little overcooked. I would probably try a different recipe next time.
