These sesame and poppy seed-coated homemade pretzels with their crispy brown exterior and soft chewy interior are a perfect snack for any time of the day. I like making these Soft Pretzels topped with Sesame and Poppy Seeds as they were one of my favorite school snacks. They are best served warm right after they are taken out of the oven.
