Place ingredients in bread pan in order recommended by manufacturer.
Use dough setting. When setting is complete, remove dough from
bread pan.
Punch down and on a lightly floured surface cut the dough into 16
equal pieces. Roll each piece of dough into a rope about 16" long.
Shape each rope into a pretzel. (Cross the ends of the rope to
make a loop; twist the crossed ends once and fold across the loop.)
Place the pretzels on a greased baking sheet 1 1/2" apart. Brush
with combined egg white and water. Sprinkle with salt or sesame
seeds. Bake in preheated 375 degree (F) oven for 15 to 20 minutes
or until gold brown.
