Both the materials and the preparation time for these pretzel snacks are modest. Serve with salt, mustard, cheese sauce, or seasonings like nutmeg, cinnamon, or ranch.

Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups self-rising flour
- 1 cup full-fat Greek yogurt
- 4 cups water
- 1 tablespoon baking soda
- cooking spray
- 1 tablespoon coarse kosher salt, or to taste
Instructions
- Mix self-rising flour and Greek yogurt together in a bowl until well combined. Turn out dough onto a floured surface and knead dough comes together.
- Roll dough into 3/4-inch thick ropes. Cut each rope into three 5-inch pieces and roll each piece into a small ball.
- Preheat an air fryer to 390 degrees F (200 degrees C) for 5 minutes.
- Meanwhile, bring water in a large pot to a boil over medium-high heat. Add baking soda to the boiling water. Carefully drop dough balls into the water and cook until they float to the top.
- Using a slotted spoon remove dough balls once they float to the top and transfer to the air fryer basket in one line. You might need to cook them in batches.
- Cook until pretzel bites are lightly browned, 8 to 10 minutes. Spray pretzel bites with nonstick cooking spray and sprinkle kosher salt on top. Serve and enjoy.
- I do not suggest lining the air fryer with parchment liners, as the dough will stick to the parchment.

Perfect instructions! Cooked them for 10 min in the air fryer on 390. Insides came out fluffy and perfect!
Well, this is one of the most delicious things I have ever had. These are fluffy and moist and light, but distinctly pretzley. A must have appetizer for pretzel fans. A few tips. This was my first time using the air fryer setting on my new-ish oven. While most air fryers do not want you to spray your pan (or basket), this is a must for the oven if you put these on an oven sheet (like I did.) I also needed to go beyond the the ten minute cooking time, probably because the dynamics of an oven size are different than most counter air fryers.
