Hi, I'm Rachel.

A few years ago I could barely boil water.

True story.

Determined to be a kick ass wife, I developed a love for football and learned to cook in my tiny Jersey City kitchen. I spend my days working in Manhattan, my nights and weekends chasing after a rambunctious toddler, and the hours in between cooking with my husband and feeding my TV habit...oh, and I blog about it all!

Cinnamon Sugar Pretzels

It's time for March's Secret Recipe Club reveal!

I took the month of February off from the SRC, thinking that it might be too much of a commitment with a brand new baby. I was right.

Even March has been a tough one with a little six week old cutie pie to take care of. When I was assigned Debbi Does Dinner Healthy as my blog of the month, I was immediately smitten with so many of her recipes...they look incredible! Of course, I went straight to the desserts to find what to make for this month.

Since I have incredibly limited time on my hands these days coupled with my new Weight Watchers commitment, I knew that her cinnamon sugar pretzels would be absolutely perfect for this month's recipe.

At just 4 Points+ per serving, these pretzels are really a treat. I used salted pretzels as the base, which made for a super delicious sweet + salty combination. And since they came together in a snap, this has become one of my favorite recipes to date.

 

Cinnamon Sugar Pretzels

*Adapted from Debbi Does Dinner Healthy

1 16oz. bag pretzel twists

1/3 C granulated sugar

2 tsp ground cinnamon

2 Tbsp olive oil

cooking spray

Preheat oven to 300 degrees. Line a large baking sheet with foil and spray with cooking spray.

In a mixing bowl, toss the pretzels and the oil together. Set aside.

In a small bowl, mix the cinnamon and sugar together. Pour over the pretzels and combine to coat.

Spread pretzels on baking sheet and bake for 40 minutes. 

Let cool and enjoy!

 

Thanks Debbi for this awesome recipe! I've been devouring pretzels like it's my job!
