Hopefully, you’ve already looked at this file in the FOOD-BREADS section of the Florilegium:
pretzels-msg (77K) 9/25/13 Period pretzels and pretzel-like breads.
http://www.florilegium.org/files/FOOD-BREADS/pretzels-msg.html

Unfortunately, as you are seeing, no one has pointed out a period pretzel recipe. We have pictures of them, but no recipes. So, as you are finding out, it is hard to know how sweet or savory they are.

We don’t know if those pretzel shapes were boiled or dipped in lye or baked.
