In a mixing bowl, combine warm water, sugar, and yeast. Let it sit for about 5 minutes until frothy.

Add flour, salt, and melted butter to the yeast mixture. Mix until a dough forms.

Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5 minutes until smooth. Place in a greased bowl, cover, and let rise for 30 minutes.

Preheat the oven to 450°F (230°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Divide the dough into 8 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a long rope, about 24 inches long.

Shape each rope into a bunny form by creating a loop for the body and two smaller loops for the ears.

In a saucepan, bring water and baking soda to a boil. Carefully drop each pretzel into the boiling solution for about 30 seconds.

Remove with a slotted spoon and place on the prepared baking sheet. Brush with egg wash and sprinkle with coarse salt.

Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes until golden brown.

Let the pretzels cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your Easter Bunny Soft Pretzels!
