When you’re committed to healthy living, you can still indulge in delicious treats, like these Soft Honey Pretzel Bites with Honey Mustard Sauce. The trick is making it yourself, so you stay in control of what’s in the food you’re eating.

Spring seems like a time for being social. If you're hosting your parties or just visiting a friend, you should make a treat in celebration! These pretzels are crowd-pleasers and satisfy your salty/sweet craving, so who could say no? The sweet and tangy mustard sauce is perfectly light for springtime, and you can change it up throughout the year for a seasonal flair.
We served these honey soft pretzel bites with honey mustard sauce on a plate with the mustard sauce in a serving dish. It was a hit! Add a sprig or two of parsley on the side for added color on your serving plate. This dish announces spring with style and flavor!
The Benefits of Mustard
Mustard is a spring crop that's very good for you. Mustard is a cruciferous family member, which includes broccoli and cabbage. Also known as cole crops, these plants produce enzymes and large amounts of vitamin C that protect your immune system. Mustard seeds are also a great source of selenium and magnesium, which are known to reduce inflammation.
Spice up this honey mustard sauce.
We love this recipe just the way it is. Those pretzels are crispy on the outside but tender and soft in the middle. And dipped in that honey-swirled mustard sauce? Add a little horseradish, and we are in heaven! But, you know, that’s just us. You might have different ideas of what perfection is. And we are all about finding your way. So, we encourage you to change this recipe in a way that works best for you. If you’d like some ideas to get the ball rolling, here are some ideas for changing this recipe:
- Use whole wheat flour to make this recipe even more nutritious
- Why not add some herbs to the pretzels, like dill?
- You can make the honey mustard sauce richer by using mayo or lighter by using plain yogurt.
- Add some rosemary to the pretzel bites for added flavor
