Red Meat Allergy Friendly Cinnamon Sugar Pretzel Bites

Soft, chewy, and rolled in a buttery cinnamon sugar coating, these pretzel bites are the kind of snack that disappears the moment they hit the table. The dough comes together with just flour, yeast, butter, and a handful of pantry staples — nothing remotely derived from red meat, so there's no need to scrutinize a single ingredient here. What makes these taste like a real pretzel is the baking soda bath, which gives each bite that signature chewy exterior and deep golden color before they ever see the oven. After a quick 12–15 minute bake, you brush them with melted butter and toss them in cinnamon sugar while they're still hot, so every bite is coated in that sweet, fragrant crust. They're genuinely impressive for a homemade project, and the whole process — from mixing the dough to pulling them out of the oven — is completely straightforward. Serve them warm for maximum pull-apart satisfaction, though honestly they don't tend to last long enough to cool down anyway.
