Recipe. Really really good with butternut squash bisque. Also I made these a few weeks ago and had a sandwich with pimiento cheese, bacon, mustard, and caramelized onions. The bun couldn’t hold it together but the flavor combination was incredible.

Those look delicious. What are you scoring with? Looks like it may not be sharp enough or your stroke is too flat.
Scored with lame. My stroke was probably too flat, I think it came out better last time.
Pretzel buns are one of my favorite types. I usually make them rectangular if if using them for sandwiches though.
My recipe is also more like a Bavarian pretzel though, only flour, water, salt, and yeast or starter, not both. The flavor is also better with a lye bath instead of baking soda. It’s a dead simple 50% hydration, so it easily scales.
Yours look very nice
We call those “Laugenbrötchen” (or “Laugenwecken”, “Laugensemmel” – religious wars continue to be fought about this):
Never seen them made with sourdough, though. 🙃
