- 1 16 oz bag mini pretzels you can easily use 15 or 17 ox bags as well!
- 10 tbsp unsalted butter melted
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- ⅔ cup granulated sugar
- 2 tbsp ground cinnamon
Line a large jelly roll pan or metal baking pan with edges with parchment paper or a nonstick baking mat and set aside. Preheat the oven to 325℉.
In a large bowl, add the mini pretzels. Add vanilla extract to the melted butter and pour over the pretzels. Use a rubber spatula to toss until all the pretzels are coated.
Once the pretzels are coated in the butter, sprinkle sugar and cinnamon over the top and use a rubber spatula to toss until all the pretzels are coated.
Pour the pretzels onto the prepared baking sheet and bake for 20-25 minutes, gently stirring them with a heat-safe spoon or spatula every 5-10 to ensure all parts of the pretzels bake and do not burn. Do not forget to stir or the pretzels can burn! When the pretzels no longer appear wet remove from the oven and let cool completely. Serve and enjoy!
