Lisa,
You requested pretzel recipes for the bread machine, similar to pretzels
in the malls. I've attached three. I've not tried any. The first two
are for the bread machine. The third is not, but is supposed to taste
like Auntie Anne's (yummy). The Auntie Anne's recipe calls for a baking
soda and water 'dip'. Maybe that will help with dough made in the bread
machine.
Good luck,

Title: Baked Pretzels
Categories: Breads, Bread machi, Snacks, Fat-free
Yield: 8 Pretzels
1 1/2 ts Yeast
1/2 ts Salt
2 c Bread flour
1/2 c Egg substitute
1/4 c Water
1 Egg white
1 tb Water
Add yeast, salt, bread flour, egg substitute, and 1/2
cup water in the order suggested by the bread machine
manufacturer and process on the dough cycle. Preheat
oven to 350 degrees. Lightly spray baking sheet with
nonfat cooking spray. When the dough cycle is
complete, remove dough and place on lightly-floured
surface. Roll dough into 12x4-inch rectangle and cut
into 8 (12-inch) strips. Pull each strip to about 14
inches in length. Form dough into pretzel shape: Make
a circle; cross the ends at the top, twist the ends
once and lay over the bottom of the circle. Pretzel
logs can also be shaped just by making rolled dough
into a 12- to 14-inch rope. Place pretzels on prepared
baking sheet. In a small bowl, combine egg white with
1 tablespoon water and brush on pretzels. If desired,
sprinkle pretzels with coarse salt, sesame, or poppy
seeds. Bake in preheated oven 15 to 20 seconds. Serve
with mustard or cheese dip.

Title: Big Soft Pretzels
Categories: Breadmakers, Mixes, Breads, Snacks
Yield: 1 Servings
: -JOY QUIRK (HFTC65A)
1 tb Dry yeast
5 c Bread mix; up to six
1 1/2 c -lukewarm water
2 Eggs; beaten
MMMMM--------------------------TOPPING-------------------------------
1 Egg; beaten
2 tb Coarse salt
1/2 c Butter; melted
Lightly grease 2 large baking sheets. In a large bowl, dissolve
yeast in lukewarm water. Blend in 2 eggs and butter. Add 5 cups
bread mix. Stir well. Add additional bread mix to make a soft, but
not too sticky dough. Knead about 5 minutes until dough is smooth.
Roll pieces of dough into ropes about 1/2 inch in diameter and 18 to
24 inches long. Form into pretzel shapes. For pretzel sticks, cut
dough into 5 to 6 inch lengths. Place on prepared baking sheets.
Preheat oven to 425.
Brush tops of pretzels with beaten egg and sprinkle with coarse salt.
Bake immediately 12 to 15 minutes, until brown and crisp. Makes 12 to
15 large pretzels.
Variation For a chewier pretzel, drop pretzel-shaped dough into a pan
of boiling water. When dough floats to the top of the water, remove
it. Preheat oven to 400. Brush with egg and sprinkle with coarse
salt. Bake about 30 minutes.
All of these recipes I have posted using my bread mix can be adjusted
to use with the bread machine, some using the dough setting. I have
had excellent results. Will try to post more over the weekend as I
get time. Also have a lot of other "mix" recipes if anyone is
interested.

1 ds Salt
1 1/2 c Water
4 c Bread flour
2 ts Baking soda

Take a piece of dough and roll and shape into a pretzel. The easiest way
to shape is to roll into a rope, whatever size you prefer. Pinch ends of
rope then bring ends of rope to other side of circle. Mix baking soda and
warm water. Melt butter and mix with honey.
Dip pretzels in baking soda and water mixture. Bake at 550F for
approximately 8 minutes. Sprinkle with white and brown sugar.
