Ingredients
- 6 cups mini pretzels
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 0.25 cup honey
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 0.25 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
Step 2
In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the unsalted butter. Once melted, add the honey, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, cayenne pepper, and sea salt. Stir well until all the ingredients combine into a smooth glaze.
Step 3
Place the mini pretzels in a large mixing bowl. Pour the spiced honey glaze over the pretzels and toss gently with a spatula to ensure all the pretzels are evenly coated.
Step 4
Spread the coated pretzels onto the prepared baking sheet in a single, even layer.
Step 5
Sprinkle the brown sugar evenly over the pretzels. This will help them develop a sweet, caramelized crunch during baking.
Step 6
Bake the pretzels in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, stirring halfway through to ensure even baking.
Step 7
Remove the pretzels from the oven and let them cool completely on the baking sheet. As they cool, the glaze will harden and form a delightfully sticky coating.
Step 8
Transfer the cooled pretzels to an airtight container for storage, or serve immediately for an irresistible snack.
