Pretzels for Breakfast

Category: BREADS

1 tube French bread or pizza crust dough (such as Pillsbury)
1 egg, beaten
STREUSEL TOPPING
1/4 cup flour
1/4 cup brown sugar
2 Tablespoons butter
1/4 cup powdered sugar, for dusting (optional)

Heat oven to 400 degrees. Grease a baking sheet.
Unroll dough into an 8x12 rectangle. Cut lengthwise into 4 strips. Roll each strip into a 16-inch rope; form into a pretzel and transfer to baking sheet.
Mix together streusel ingredients until crumbly. Brush pretzels with egg, then sprinkle with streusel. Bake until puffed and golden, about 20 minutes. Dust with powdered sugar, if desired.
Serves 4.
