Ingredients
Scale
- 1 (16.3-ounce) can refrigerated biscuit dough (8 biscuits; e.g., Pillsbury Grands! Buttermilk Southern Homestyle)
- 2 cups warm water
- ¼ cup baking soda
- 4 tablespoons butter, melted
- Coarse salt (or flavor variations like everything bagel seasoning or cinnamon sugar)
Instructions
- Preheat Oven:
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat for easy cleanup. - Prepare Dough:
Cut each biscuit into 4 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a ball and make a small slit on top using a knife. - Make Baking Soda Solution:
In a medium bowl, whisk the baking soda into the warm water until it is completely dissolved. - Dip Dough Balls:
Dip each dough ball into the baking soda solution, ensuring it’s fully coated. Place the dough balls, slit side up, onto the prepared baking sheet. - Butter and Salt:
Brush the dough balls with melted butter and immediately sprinkle them with coarse salt, or substitute with your preferred topping. - Bake:
Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake for 8-9 minutes, or until the pretzel bites are golden brown and have that beautiful deep color. - Serve:
Remove from the oven and serve warm for the best texture and flavor. Enjoy your pretzel bites as a snack or appetizer!
Notes
- Flavor Variations:
- For savory bites, substitute coarse salt with everything bagel seasoning.
- For sweet bites, skip the salt entirely, bake as directed, and brush the bites with melted butter. Then sprinkle with cinnamon sugar after baking.
