Directions
- Combine the water, honey and yeast in a mixing bowl. Let sit for 5 minutes until it’s bubbly on the top.
- Add the cider, butter, flour and salt. Mix at a medium speed until the dough is smooth and begins to pull away from the sides of the bowl. Cover the bowl and place in a warm spot until the dough doubles in size, about 1–2 hours. (Note: If the dough is too wet, add additional flour, 1 tablespoon at a time.)
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil.
- Remove the dough from the bowl and place on a floured surface. Divide the dough into 8 equal balls. Roll each ball into a long rope. To shape into pretzels, take the right side and cross over to the left. Cross right to the left again and flip up.
- Add baking soda to the boiling water. Boil the pretzels, 1-2 at a time, for 30 seconds. Remove with a large slotted spoon and place the pretzel on the parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Brush the pretzels with the egg and sprinkle liberally with salt. Bake for 10–15 minutes or until the pretzels are golden brown.
- Make the honey mustard by combining all ingredients in a bowl. Whisk until smooth and creamy.
- Serve the pretzels warm and with lots of honey mustard for dipping.
- Enjoy!
