Step‑by‑Step Instructions for Easter Bunny Soft Pretzels

Activate the yeast by whisking together warm water, yeast, and brown sugar. Let sit for 5 to 10 minutes until frothy.
Make the dough by stirring in salt and olive oil, then gradually adding flour until a soft dough forms. Knead for 5 minutes and let rest to double in size.
Shape the dough into bunnies by rolling it into ropes, forming an oval for the head and two ears.
Boil the pretzels in water with baking soda for 15 to 20 seconds each.
Brush with plant milk, sprinkle with salt, and bake at 400°F for 12 to 15 minutes until golden brown.
