Enjoy these delightful Salted Caramel Pretzel Bites, a perfect blend of sweet and salty. Mini pretzels are coated in a rich, homemade caramel and finished with a sprinkle of sea salt for a satisfying crunch.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup mini pretzels
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon sea salt

Instructions

  1. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Arrange the mini pretzels in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
  3. In a medium saucepan, combine granulated sugar and water. Stir until the sugar is dissolved.
  4. Cook over medium heat without stirring until the sugar turns an amber color, about 8-10 minutes.
  5. Carefully stir in the heavy cream, butter, and vanilla extract. The mixture will bubble vigorously.
  6. Continue to cook, stirring constantly, until the caramel thickens, about 2-3 minutes.
  7. Remove from heat and stir in the sea salt.
  8. Quickly spoon the caramel over the mini pretzels, ensuring each pretzel is coated.
  9. Allow the caramel to set completely before serving.

Notes

  • For a smoother caramel, warm the heavy cream and butter slightly before adding them to the sugar mixture.
  • Ensure you have all ingredients measured and ready before starting the caramel, as it cooks quickly.
  • If the caramel hardens too quickly, gently reheat it over low heat.
