It’s no secret that pretzels make for the best snacks. They’re just the perfect amount of salty that they could be paired with pretty much anything. Savory dips, sweet chocolate, other salty snacks… So many things.

I have a habit of always having at least one bag of pretzels in my pantry. Twists, rods, sticks… It doesn’t matter what kind. I just always have some on hand in case I get a craving for some or I come across a pretzel recipe that I need to make immediately.

In addition to using bagged pretzels for baking and cooking, I also, from time to time, make pretzel recipes from scratch. So, like soft pretzels, pretzel bread, pretzel rolls… Foods like that. They’re just so much better when they’re homemade. Especially if you eat them when they’re fresh and warm out of the oven.

Honestly, if you’re looking for cheap eats, look no further than these easy pretzel recipes. They have the perfect flavor to them and make for really great entertaining dishes. (Seriously though. Just put some of the pretzel snack recipes out in a dish and see how long it takes for them to disappear!)
