Special Notes

These homemade ranch pretzels are perfect for parties and game day snacks. The ranch seasoning adds a tangy, herby flavor that pairs perfectly with the soft pretzel texture. The key is to not overwork the dough to keep the pretzels tender. These can be made ahead of time and reheated in the oven. For extra flavor, you can add more ranch seasoning or serve with different dipping sauces.
