Pretzels

This was a fun little snack I wanted to try.  But I will have to warn you - watch it the last 15 minutes really closely.  I had them in the oven, stirring every 10 minutes.  The recipe said to cook it 30 minutes, but I should have taken them out at 20.  The last 10 minutes turned them too dark.  It is probably my oven, so if you try this - keep your eyes on them.  Here is the recipe:

16 oz. pretzels - put in a roasting pan

Mix:
1/2 cup oil, 1/2 cup sugar, and 2 teaspoons cinnamon

Pour mixture over pretzels.  Place in 300 degree oven.  Bake for 30 minutes.  Stir every 10 minutes.

Take out of oven and spread out on paper towels to cool.  Store in airtight container.

Another little tip - I would double the cinnamon next time I make it.  But I like cinnamon!
