Whether you got your Auntie Anne’s pretzel fix at the mall or the airport (do they exist anywhere else?), you may be missing those salty, buttery treats now that we’re not spending much time in either place. If this is the case, mark your calendar for Sunday, May 31 at 4 p.m. EST, when THE Auntie Anne herself (the chain’s founder Anne Beiler) will be doing a Facebook Live pretzel-making tutorial. The virtual class will take place at the home of the company’s current president, Heather Neary, but don’t worry: Auntie Anne herself will be there and doing the rolling.
The Auntie Anne’s pretzel recipe
Technically, they want you to order their DIY At-Home Pretzel Kit for the event, which, for $20, comes with most of what you need to make 10 pretzels, either in their original or cinnamon sugar flavor. Butter—a key component of these pretzels—is not included in the kit.
But if you don’t have time to order a kit, or want to save some money, there are several Auntie Anne pretzel copycat recipes out there, including these from Food.com, The Spruce Eats and Once Upon a Chef. The main thing you’ll be learning from Auntie Anne during the tutorial is how to actually form the pretzels, so making your own dough shouldn’t be an issue.
Back by popular demand
The DIY At-Home Pretzel Kits were initially a limited-time special for National Pretzel Day, but ended up being so popular, the company brought them back. “We heard from our guests loud and clear that they are missing our hand-rolled, golden brown pretzel snacks, and quite frankly, we’re missing our guests, too!” Neary said in a statement. “The DIY At-Home Pretzel Kit is not only a great way to satisfy those pretzel cravings, but also creates a fun activity for families to enjoy together while remaining at home.”
Even if you aren’t able to join the Facebook Live demonstration, the video will remain up on the Auntie Anne’s page after that for a quick tutorial whenever you have the time. Now every day can be Pretzel Day!
