Spicy Seasoned Pretzels
Coated in a zesty, homemade spice blend, these Spicy Seasoned Pretzels are the ultimate snack - crunchy, flavorful, and perfectly spicy! They're great for parties, school lunches, or anytime snacking!
Equipment
- large mixing bowl
- measuring cup
- (2) 13 x 9 baking sheets
Ingredients
- 1 (10 ounce) bag of mini pretzels
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil
- 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 3/4 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon dried dill
- 3/4 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/8 teaspoon sea salt (optional) See notes below
Instructions
- Add pretzels to a large bowl. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper and preheat oven to 300℉.
- Combine all the seasonings (see notes below about salt) and oil in a measuring cup and stir. Pour the seasoned oil over the pretzels and stir until all the pretzels are coated.
- Distribute the pretzels amongst the baking sheets and scrape any seasoned oil still in the bowl onto the pretzels. Bake pretzels for 7 minutes.
- Let the pretzels cool completely (I like to wait an hour so so) before storing in an air-tight container because any heat will create condensation, which will make the pretzels not crunchy. Enjoy!

Notes
- The serving size (10) is based on 1-ounce snack size bags of pretzels.
- Kept in an air-tight container, these pretzels should stay fresh for at least a week.
- If you're salt averse, I would omit the added salt.
