Cinnamon Sugar Pretzels
Quick and crunchy cinnamon sugar-coated pretzels, perfect for snacking or gifting.
Ingredients
- 16 oz small pretzels mini twists or snaps work well
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter melted
- 0.5 cup granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 300°F (150°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Place pretzels in a large mixing bowl.
- In a small bowl, whisk together granulated sugar and ground cinnamon until well combined.
- Melt the butter in a microwave-safe dish or small saucepan over low heat.
- Pour melted butter over pretzels and gently toss with a spatula until evenly coated.
- Sprinkle cinnamon-sugar mixture over the buttered pretzels and toss gently until completely coated.
- Spread coated pretzels in a single, even layer on the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake for 8-10 minutes, until coating is set and fragrant.
- Remove from oven and let cool completely on the baking sheet; pretzels will get crunchier as they cool.
- Serve immediately or store in an airtight container at room temperature.
Notes
Be gentle when tossing pretzels to avoid breaking. Ensure pretzels are in a single layer for even baking. Optional: drizzle melted white chocolate over cooled pretzels for extra sweetness.
