Salted Beer Pretzel Crescents
Salted Beer Pretzel Crescents- Easy pretzel rolls made with a pale ale beer and pre made croissant dough.


Making homemade pretzel rolls is easy! Especially, when you take a shortcut 😉
Ingredients Needed
- Pre made croissant dough ( ex: crescent rolls)
- Beer
- Baking soda
- Coarse salt
Dough
Any brand or variety ( low fat, fat free, etc) can be used. I used 2 packs which consisted of 8 rolls in each package.
Beer
I like to use a pale ale ( lighter tasting beer) for any cooking or baking. It still gives them a unique taste, but, the taste of beer is not too overwhelming. Go with your preferred brand and taste. Just stick with the same ounce size.
Salt
Of course, a coarse sea salt with give your pretzel rolls a typical pretzel look. But, you can go with regular salt or even omit it all together, if desired.

How to Make: (full instructions in recipe card)
- Remove dough from package and separate dough into individual triangles. Roll each triangle, starting with the shortest side and continue in the opposite direction.
- Next, boil beer and baking soda in a saucepan. Be sure the baking soda is well dissolved. Let it come to a boil and remove from heat.
- Working in batches, add each roll into the beer and carefully, get it coated in the mixture. Don’t leave it in for too long…just a few seconds! You roll will look a little bloated. That’s OK.
- Remove with slotted spoon and place on prepared baking sheet. Sprinkle tops with coarse sea salt.
- Bake!
