The best quick and easy salted soft pretzels are buttery, salty, and so delicious. They are golden brown and chewy on the outside, yet warm and soft inside.
To begin, preheat your oven to 425 degrees F and line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. Parchment paper is a must, these pretzels will stick like the dickens otherwise, even if they are non-stick baking sheets!
Add 1 cup of warm water, yeast and 1 teaspoon of sugar to the mixing bowl. Let this mixture sit until foamy, about 10 minutes.
Once the yeast is ready, add the melted butter and salt. Add flour, one 1/2 cup at a time, until dough is no longer sticky. You may need to add more or less flour depending on the humidity in your area. Knead the dough for about 5 minutes until a smooth dough forms. Cover with a clean tea towel and let the dough rest for 15 minutes.
While the dough is resting, you can prepare the baking soda bath. Add 2 cups of water to a medium sized pot. Add 4 tablespoons of baking soda and whisk. Heat until the baking soda is dissolved then remove from the heat and allow it to cool slightly.
After the dough has rested for 15 minutes, cut it into 8 equal pieces. I find cutting the dough like a pizza helps keep the pieces rather equal.
Place each pretzel into the baking soda bath. The bath should be lukewarm by now. Let each pretzel soak for a minute then carefully move it to the prepared baking sheet. You may need to readjust your shape slightly. Sprinkle with coarse sea salt while the pretzel is wet. Repeat for remaining pretzels.
Bake pretzels in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes until browned. Immediately after removing from oven, brush pretzels with melted butter. Serve immediately!

To create the classic twist pretzel shape, you need to make a long thin rope with your uncooked dough (ideally, the rope should be 20 to 22 inches long). Form a “U” and twist the two ends to form the classic twist.
