Some people will say that they are more of a “sweet” or “salty” person. I’ve always said I’m both. I crave salty foods, but immediately after I need a little something sweet. Lately, I’ve been combining the two and loving the results! Remember, I barely have enough time to eat one thing so this double dose is more efficient. I know, I should simply avoid both and eat a carrot, but that’s no fun!

I was afriad these muffins would come out too salty, but they were just right. If you are worried or not a fan salted sweets, like salted caramels, simply leave off the garnish salt. That is truly where you get the salt taste, not from the pretzels themselves. These work well for breakfast, but make a great snack!
