Soft Pretzel Animals

1 Package Active Dry Yeast 1 Egg
4 Cups Flour 1 Tablespoon Sugar
1 1/2 Cup Water, Warm 1 Tablespoon Salt

In large bowl, mix together yeast, water, sugar, and salt. Stir in flour. Knead on table until dough is smooth. Shape dough into animal shapes. Brush with beaten egg and sprinkle with salt. Bake in 425 degree oven for 15 minutes or until browned.

1991 Recipe - April Ferre

"We made these during after-school care at Mid County (now Twin Lakes) Christian School.  This would have been around the 3rd or 4th grade, and we had a great time shaping the dough into different animal shapes ... and then biting their heads off after they were baked!" - April Ferre
