Crack Pretzels – You Can’t Eat Just One!
Maybe you remember a few months back I went a little crazy at the Fisher Nut Store and bought a 25 pound box of mini pretzels. Well, now that Christmas has passed and I have dipped way more than my fair share of pretzels in chocolate; I STILL had a ton of pretzels left!
After trying a bag of a VERY expensive flavored pretzels (as in $5.99 for a 16 oz package) there was a major LIGHT BULB MOMENT! Season those salty twists with a savory mix of spices and make a delicious snack for a FRACTION of the cost of the very expensive store bought ones. These are perfectly salty, a tad spicy, and impossible to stop eating.

What you need:
16 oz. pretzels (whatever style you want!)
3/4 c. butter flavored popcorn oil *
3 Tbsp. ranch dressing mix – I have bulk bottle so I measured, but its about 1 1/2 packets if you have the single servings
1 t. lemon pepper
1/8 t. cayenne pepper (go for more if you like spicy)
Make it:
- Preheat oven to 250°
- Combine dry seasonings in a small bowl
- Add pretzels in a large mixing bowl and pour butter oil over. Toss to coat
- Sprinkle dry spices over oil coated pretzels and carefully stir
- Put in a large baking sheet or roasting pan in a single layer. Bake for 1 hour, stirring every 15-20 minutes.
- Remove from oven and allow to cool. Store in a sealed container for 1 week.
*Note: If you don’t have the popcorn oil, use melted butter OR use butter flavored pretzel braids and vegetable oil. The butter notes are key to the flavor profile so don’t skip out!
