Dough Letters and Sculptures

I used to refer to this activity as pretzel letters, but it’s really bread dough, and we seldom end up with anything that resembles letters – but we DO have a WHOLE lot of fun!

You can either make or purchase bread dough ahead of time.

Preheat oven to 400. Throw out bit of flour on work surface to minimize sticking. Break off golf-ball size pieces of dough and roll, smoosh, twist, work into letters, whatever works!

Place on baking sheet and brush on coat of beaten egg.  Top with cinnamon, parmesan cheese or sea salt.  Bake for about 20-30 minutes depending on thickness of dough pieces.
