Ranch Pretzels
You might be wondering… why don’t I just buy some ranch-flavored pretzels? Simple answer, these are way better. You will be blown away with the amount of flavor that comes bursting out of these little handheld appetizers. They are the perfect addition for after school, game day, summer picnics, or even a long road trip.
What Are Ranch Pretzels
Ranch pretzels are seriously a snack lovers dream. Simply toss them into a bowl and watch as they are devoured before your eyes. This recipe is an amazing DIY adaptation of the ranch pretzels that you can buy at the supermarket. Unlike the store-bought version, with this recipe, you can adjust the taste to your liking. If you like a little extra ranch flavor you can use more of the ranch seasoning. You can choose to use different styles of pretzels as well. I have seen people use this recipe on spindles, pretzel sticks, or even the thick-cut pretzels. No matter how you make it, the entire recipe whips together in under 5 minutes.
Ingredients & Substitutions
Making a super delicious snack could not be any easier. Start by assembling your ingredients:
Pretzels: As I mentioned, you can select any type of pretzel you want. We went with mini pretzels because they have a lot of surface area and we wanted the flavor to really stick out on every surface of the pretzel.
Dry Ranch Seasoning Mix: Making your own dry ranch seasoning is super easy and it stores for up to three months. You can double or even triple this recipe if you are making a lot of ranch recipes. Some recipes that you could use this recipe with are ranch pork chops, bacon ranch cheeseball bites, and cheesy ranch chicken pasta. To make dry ranch seasoning from home just combine:
Oil: We like the buttery undertones that come through with the addition of popcorn oil. If you don’t have any on hand, you could also use a soybean oil or canola oil as a replacement.
Garlic Powder: Feel free to adapt this to your own personal
