Bread Machine Pretzel Bites


Note: These were very yummy. A good "dip in mustard" pretzel. Instead of forming into a pretzel shape, we cut them in 1-1.5" pieces. I thought it was going to be a lot of work to boil them and then bake; but it wasn't a big deal at all.

I'm sorry the pics aren't the best- they were taken on the fly with my cell. Trust me, they were delicious!
