Fast food fan and TikTok creator, Jordan, has recently shared on the platform how to make Aunty Anne\u2019s famous Pretzel Bites at home. Jordan has gained a lot of attention on the platform in previous videos, where he shared various food hacks, including how to make Big Mac sauce, as well as Baja Blast. Now, he\u2019s showing fans how to recreate Pretzel Bites, saying he \u201cdidn\u2019t realize how expensive they were,\u201d to purchase in-store. In a video, which has gained over 882,000 views, Jordan uses a container of biscuit dough, along with a few other ingredients, which he claims cost him a mere $5. In comparison, a bucket of Pretzel Bites from Aunty Anne\u2019s costs $19.99. In the video, he cuts the biscuits up, soaks them in a lye bath, simply consisting of water and baking soda, then places them in a fryer at 330. After this, he bastes them in butter, then creates a coating made of sugar and cinnamon to place on the bites. This recipe, he said, should make approximately 30 pretzel bites. Fans divided by Jordan\u2019s video Many people were excited by Jordan\u2019s Pretzel Bites, stating that they were a great money-saving hack when fast food prices were on the rise. One said, \u201cAt this rate, I\u2019m going to have an entire collection saved for Jordan\u2019s hacks.\u201d Another agreed, saying \u201cNormally I don\u2019t trust TikTok recipes but I trust Mr President.\u201d Some, however, were dubious about the recipe, wondering if they actually tasted like the authentic Pretzel Bites from Aunty Annes. One such comment corrected his method for making the Pretzel Bites, stating, \u201cYou actually boil the lye bath and let them sit for 20-30 seconds. I\u2019ve made the faint pretzels homemade. That\u2019s why they don\u2019t look right.\u201d An actual worker at Aunty Anne\u2019s also had something to say on the matter. \u201cI work at Philly Pretzel Factory, we have a real lye bath (baker lye, NaOH) at 160 \u2013 180 F, a quick dip and we bake at 550 F for 7 minutes, then salt before baking.\u201d It\u2019s up for debate whether or not Jordan\u2019s Pretzel Bite hack tastes like the real thing, but for a mere $5, it\u2019s a winner for many.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Fast food expert makes Aunty Anne\u2019s Pretzel Bites from scratch Aunty AnnesA fast food expert on TikTok has shared a viral hack to make Aunty Anne\u2019s Pretzel Bites from scratch, leaving fans divided.
