Time 2h10m

Number Of Ingredients 5

1/2 c vegetable oil
1 pkg hidden valley ranch dry dressing mix
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp cayenne pepper
2-15oz pkg pretzel nuggets

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 200 degrees.
  • 2. Pour oil into 2-cup glass measuring cup. Add ranch mix, garlic powder and cayenne pepper.
  • 3. Whisk oil and spices thoroughly together.
  • 4. Shake pretzel bag vigorously to knock off much of packaged salt. Discard salt. Place pretzels on ungreased baking pan.
  • 5. Pour oil over pretzels. Use rubber scraper to get all oil out of cup. Gently stir pretzels until all are coated with oil mixture.
  • 6. Bake, uncovered for 90 minutes, stirring every 20 minutes.
  • 7. Remove from baking pan and cool completely (about 30 minutes.) Store cold pretzels in airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 weeks.
  • 8. Cook note: 1 tsp of cayenne gives this a nice but not overwhelming zip. Adjust amount as needed to your taste.
