To make Savory Pretzel Bites with a Kick, you will need the following ingredients:

To start, combine the flour, yeast, sugar, and salt in a large mixing bowl. Add the warm water and mix until a dough forms. Knead the dough for a few minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic. Cover the dough and let it rise for about an hour.
Preheat your oven to 425°F. In a large pot, bring 8 cups of water and the baking soda to a boil. Divide the dough into small pieces and roll them into bite-sized balls. Drop the balls into the boiling water and let them cook for about 30 seconds. Remove the balls from the water and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Brush the beaten egg over the pretzel bites and sprinkle them with coarse sea salt and cayenne pepper. Bake the pretzel bites for 12-15 minutes or until they are golden brown.
