Cinnamon Soft Pretzel Bites

Cinnamon Soft Pretzel Bites Growing up, whenever we went to the mall, my mom would always get us an Auntie Anne’s soft pretzel to share on the ride home.  I loved the cinnamon sugar pretzels the best, spilling sugar and crumbs all over myself and the car.

Now, the following recipe for soft pretzel bites aren’t exactly the same as Auntie Anne’s, but once you dip them in butter and coat them with the cinnamon and maple sugar mixture, you might find them to be just as good.Cinnamon Soft Pretzel Bites

These soft pretzel bites are pretty versatile.  If you don’t want to coat them in cinnamon and maple sugar, dip them in some Squirrely Tail Nut Butter, your favorite mustard, or maybe even some cheese sauce.  They make a great addition to any party or you can just serve them as a snack.

I over did it with the first batch I made, but I really love the way the dough cracked to make those beautiful swirls.  Cutting the baking time by a few minutes on the second batch resulted in a perfect golden brown.  Soft Pretzel BitesI love using Daisy flour whenever a recipe calls for flour.  Even though it is all-purpose, the only ingredient is wheat that is neither bleached or enriched.  It’s a healthy ingredient that makes the soft pretzel bites light and fluffy.  This recipe is also considered clean eating.
