Ingredients
  

Ingredients
  • 4 Plum Creek frozen soft pretzels, thawed cut into bite‑sized pieces
  • 2 eggs
  • 1.5 cups whole milk
  • 0.25 cup heavy cream
  • 0.5 cup brown sugar
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 0.25 tsp nutmeg
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt

Equipment

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease an 8x8 baking dish.
  2. Cut the thawed Plum Creek soft pretzels into bite‑sized pieces and let sit on the counter for about an hour to dry slightly.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together eggs, whole milk, heavy cream, brown sugar, ground cinnamon, nutmeg, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt.
  4. Add the pretzel pieces to the custard mixture and gently stir to coat. Allow the pretzels to soak for 10–15 minutes.
