This pretzel roll recipe is the best dinner roll recipe you will ever find! I promise these will be the talk of your next get together. 

This is honestly the only roll recipe I have been using for the last 10 years because it’s a cinch to make and so versatile! You could literally make these every single day and have a completely different roll simply by changing the toppings.

Topping Ideas for Pretzel Dinner Rolls:

Top this pretzel roll with fresh herbs like rosemary or sage and serve as a side dish.

Or shape them into pretzel bites and toss in cinnamon sugar or Everything but the Bagel Seasoning for a delicious breakfast bite or snack!

From tossing to measuring, my kids love to help with this entire recipe. Their oddly-shaped rolls are just a crack-up! Do you aim for the perfect round shape?

Sometimes we have nice, smooth round rolls. But most of the time we end up with some variation of a football shape. If you have multiple children helping, portion enough dough for each child to participate!

And my favorite topping of all time is probably a jalapeno cheese variation. Top the uncooked rolls with pickled diced jalapenos and cheddar cheese. They are heavenly!

Famous Pretzel Rolls

Prep Time: 1 hour 15 minutes
Cook Time: 10 minutes
Total Time: 1 hour 25 minutes

Soft, fluffy pretzel rolls are the perfect side to your family dinners.

Ingredients

  • 1 Tablespoon Dry Active Yeast
  • 3 Tablespoons Brown Sugar
  • 1 Cup Milk, Warm
  • 2 Tablespoons Butter, Diced
  • 2 Cups All Purpose Flour
  • 1 Teaspoon Salt

To Top:

  • 1/2 Cup Butter, Melted
  • Kosher Salt or Flaked Sea Salt (I recommend Maldon Salt)
  • Optional Toppings: Rosemary or Sage, Minced


Instructions

  1. Place the yeast and brown sugar into a mixing bowl.
  2. Warm the milk, but make sure it is not hot or it will kill your yeast.
  3. Add the milk to the yeast mixture, stir and let sit for 10 minutes to activate the yeast. The yeast should look foamy when activated.
  4. When the yeast is activated add the butter, 1 cup of flour and salt and stir to combine.
  5. Add the other cup of flour and stir to combine. The dough may be a little sticky and that is okay. Cover the dough with a towel and let sit in a warm place for 1 hour or until it has doubled in size.
  6. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Melt the 1/2 cup butter in a small bowl.
  7. Dip your hands into the melted butter and grab about 1/4 cup of dough. Roll into a ball and place the dough on a parchment lined baking sheet.
  8. Finish with the remaining dough. Brush the tops of the rolls with melted butter and then top with a good amount of salt and optional herbs. Cook in the oven for 10 minutes.
  9. Remove from the oven, brush with more melted butter and salt. Serve warm.
