Ingredients
- 4 cups pretzel twists (or any pretzel shape you prefer)
- 1 packet ranch seasoning mix (dry)
- 1 tablespoon dried dill weed
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1/4 cup pickle juice (from a jar of dill pickles)
- 1/4 teaspoon salt (optional)
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven:
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. -
Prepare the Seasoning:
In a small bowl, mix together the ranch seasoning mix, dried dill weed, garlic powder, onion powder, and salt (if using). -
Coat the Pretzels:
In a large bowl, pour the melted butter and pickle juice over the pretzels. Toss to coat evenly. Sprinkle the seasoning mixture over the pretzels and toss again until the pretzels are fully coated with the seasoning. -
Bake the Pretzels:
Spread the seasoned pretzels evenly on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 15-20 minutes, stirring halfway through, until the pretzels are golden and crispy. -
Cool and Serve:
Let the pretzels cool completely before serving. Store any leftovers in an airtight container.
Notes
- For Extra Tanginess: Add a little more pickle juice or a few tablespoons of finely chopped dill pickles to the seasoning mixture for an extra pop of flavor.
- Make it Spicy: If you enjoy a bit of heat, sprinkle some red pepper flakes or cayenne pepper over the pretzels before baking.
- Storage: These pretzels stay fresh for several days when stored in an airtight container at room temperature.
