Ok, so I actually do understand that the intention of having an Air Fryer is not use less oil and blah blah blah…But… PRETZELS.

Hardly the healthiest recipe, but I was so curious at the apparent ease of this, I just had to give it a try. Full disclosure: your kitchen may end up looking like a meth lab at the end of your first experiment. Exhibit A…

But the end result! All crispy on the outside and chewy on the inside!

Also, excellent vehicles for Ranch or cheesy goodness.
