Cinnamon Sugar Pretzels
Description
This recipe starts by tossing pretzel twists with melted unsalted butter to ensure even coating. A mixture of granulated sugar and ground cinnamon is combined separately and then sprinkled over the pretzels, which are tossed to distribute the cinnamon sugar evenly.
The coated pretzels are baked at 325°F for 30 minutes. During baking, they are gently stirred every 10 minutes to ensure uniform cooking and coating. Baking dries out the pretzels, producing a crisp texture and setting the cinnamon sugar onto their surface for a sweet profile balanced by the buttery coating.
Once baked and cooled fully for 20 to 45 minutes (depending on ambient conditions), these pretzels can be stored in an airtight bag for over a week, maintaining their crunch and flavor. The recipe yields a convenient snack that combines salty pretzels with a sweet and spicy topping.
Ingredients
- 15 ounces pretzel twists
- 8 tablespoons butter melted, unsalted
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons ground cinnamon
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 325°F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or a nonstick baking mat, and set aside.
- Pour the pretzel twists into a large mixing bowl. Drizzle the butter on top of them. Use a rubber spatula to toss until all the pretzels are coated.
- In a small bowl, combine the sugar and cinnamon, stirring until mixed.
- Pour the cinnamon sugar mixture on top of the pretzels, and toss until all the pretzels are coated.
- Transfer the pretzels to the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake the pretzels for 30 minutes, gently stirring them with a heat-safe spoon or spatula every 10 to ensure all parts of the pretzels bake.
- When the pretzels have baked for 30 minutes and no longer appear wet, remove from the oven, and let cool completely. This will take 20-45 minutes, just depending.
