- 16 oz bag tiny twist pretzels
- 1 cup avocado oil
- 2 teaspoon garlic salt
- 2 teaspoons lemon pepper
- 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
Pour oil and spices into a gallon ziploc bag. Seal and shake to evenly combine oil with spices
1 cup avocado oil, 2 teaspoon garlic salt, 2 teaspoons lemon pepper, 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
Add in pretzels, seal up ziploc bag, and gently shake to combine.
16 oz bag tiny twist pretzels
Allow pretzels to soak up the seasoned oil for at least 6 hours, or ideally for 24 hours. Turn bag to shake up pretzels every few hours. No need to bake them, the pretzels will soak up all the oil.
Will keep in an airtight container for at least 1 week.
See the Recipe Notes below for more tips, FAQ's and ingredient substitutions.
Oil: I prefer using avocado oil. I try and avoid vegetable and canola oil, but those would work as well. Same quantity.
Garlic Salt: If you don't have garlic salt, you can substitute 1 teaspoon garlic powder and 1 teaspoon salt.
Spice: This is mild spice. Feel free to use even less cayenne pepper if you don't want it spicy. When making for my kids I only use 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper. You can also use more to taste if you want it spicier.
