Indulge in the delightful taste of Easy Air Fryer Soft Cinnamon Pretzels—a perfect treat for any time of day. This simple recipe transforms regular dough into chewy, golden pretzels with a delightful crunch, all while keeping the prep hassle-free.
Start by combining warm water, sugar, and yeast in a bowl, allowing it to activate while you mix together your dry ingredients. Once combined, introduce melted butter for that extra richness before kneading the dough until it’s smooth and elastic.
Next, divide the dough into bite-sized pieces and twist them into iconic pretzel shapes. An essential step is the baking soda bath; submerging the twisted dough in this solution gives the pretzels their characteristic flavour and colour.
Arrange the formed pretzels in your air fryer, brushing them lightly with egg wash to achieve a stunning golden finish. Sprinkle generously with cinnamon sugar post-cooking for a sweet touch that elevates each bite.
These soft cinnamon pretzels are not only delicious but also a doddle to make, bringing the warmth of a bakery right into your own kitchen. Perfect for sharing—or keeping all to yourself!
