Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup peanut butter
  • 1/2 cup butter, softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 cup pretzel pieces
  • 1/4 cup chopped peanuts
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar, for topping

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together the peanut butter, softened butter, and 1 cup of granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until well combined.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
  6. Stir in the pretzel pieces and chopped peanuts.
  7. Roll the dough into 1-inch balls and place them on the prepared baking sheets, about 2 inches apart.
  8. Flatten each ball slightly with the bottom of a glass.
  9. Sprinkle the tops with the remaining 1/4 cup of granulated sugar.
  10. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
  11. Let the peanut butter pretzels cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to wire racks to cool completely.

Notes

  • For a richer flavor, use natural peanut butter.
  • You can add chocolate chips to the dough for a chocolate peanut butter pretzel variation.
  • Ensure your butter is truly softened to avoid a tough dough.
  • Do not overmix the dough once the flour is added.
