Notes
Storage :
Make-Ahead: These pretzels stay fresh in an airtight container for up to a week, making them ideal for party prep, lunchboxes, or gifting ahead of time.
Store: Keep in an airtight container or Ziplock bag at room temperature for up to 1 week.
Reheat: Not necessary, but if you'd like to refresh them, pop in a 300°F oven for about 5 minutes.
Freeze: Not recommended. Freezing affects the crunch and coating texture.
Tips :
- Gently toss pretzels using 2 wooden spoons (like tossing salad) for even coating
- Use a lined baking sheet for less mess and easy cleanup
- Add a drizzle of melted white chocolate or caramel after baking for a sweet upgrade, or try seasonal spice blends like apple pie spice or chai for a unique twist
- Use pretzel sticks or sourdough nuggets for a different texture
