Air Fryer Pretzel Bites

Makes 32 pretzel bites
Ingredients
- 1 pound refrigerated pizza dough
- ¼ cup baking soda
- 1 Tablespoon kosher salt
- 4 cups water
Instructions
- Remove dough from the refrigerator and let come to room temperature for at least 30 minutes. (This will make it easier to roll out the dough).
- In a large pot, bring water and baking soda to a gentle boil.
- Roll the pizza dough into a rectangle, about 8". x&" wide. Use a sharp knife or pizza cutter to cut the dough into four long strips.
- Cut each strip in half into two pieces. Cut each half into 4 pieces. You'll have a total of 32 pieces when you're done.
- Working in batches, drop the dough into the water and cook for 45-60 seconds. Remove dough with a slotted spoon and transfer to a paper twoel lined plate. Immediately sprinkle the pretzel bites with salt. Repeat with the remaining dough.
- Lightly spray the air fryer basket with nonstick cooking spray. Pplace a portion of the pretzel bites into the basket and cook at 375*F for 7 minutes until light golden brown. Repeat with the remaining bites. *Note: the second or third batch will cook more quickly as the air fryer is preheated.
Farm Girl Tips
The second batch will cook faster than the first batch because the air fryer is pre-heated. You'll likely need only 4-5 minutes for the second or third batch.
Storage: These pretzel bites are best eaten after baking in the air fryer. You can reheat them in the oven or air fryer to give them a refresh.
Leftovers: To reheat in the air fryer, preheat your air fryer to 350°F for a few minutes, then cook bites for 2-3 minutes.
Alternatively, you can freeze them and reheat at a later time.
