​Easter Prayer Pretzel
Ingredients
  • 1 package yeast .25 oz
  • 1 1/2 cups warm water
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 4 cups flour
  • 1 egg
  • extra salt for the top of the pretzels large kosher salt works best!
Instructions
  • Preheat your oven to 425°F
  • Mix yeast, water, sugar, and salt in a large bowl.
  • Stir in the flour, and knead until the dough is smooth.
  • Shape into the form of arms crossed in prayer and place it on a baking sheet.
  • Brush the dough with a beaten egg to give it a shiny finish. (This is optional. I skipped the egg on mine.) Sprinkle the top with salt.
  • Bake at 425°F for 15 minutes.
NotesThe yield on this recipe depends on how large or small you make your pretzels. However, I would suggest making 5 - 6 pretzels with this recipe

As we enter the season of Lent our Kids Club is learning about the life of Jesus. Last week we learned about how Jesus began his ministry and how his disciples chose to follow him.
We chose to make these crafts to remind us of
Matthew 4:18-20
​

18 Now as Jesus was walking by the Sea of Galilee, He saw two brothers, Simon, who was called Peter, and his brother Andrew, casting a net into the sea; for they were fishermen. 19 And He *said to them, “[a]Follow Me, and I will make you fishers of people.” 20 Immediately they left their nets and followed Him.
New American Standard Bible
