Almond Butter Filled Pretzel Nuggets

Discovering Trader Joe’s Almond Butter Filled Pretzel Nuggets may make you feel as though you’ve struck snack gold, in the form of about-an-inch long, crunchy pretzel nuggets, whose golden exterior is generously crusted with rock salt. Inside, it’s an almond butter abondanza. Really. More than 35% of the recipe here is almond butter, made from almonds grown in California’s Central Valley. Like their PBP (that’s Peanut Butter Pretzel) cousins, every bite is crunchy (outside) and creamy (inside); salty (outside) and a little sweet (inside). This makes them a particularly satisfying solo snack, and a likewise excellent addition to your favorite TJ’s trail mix—you won’t regret keeping a bag in your desk drawer or backpack for either purpose. And if you’re looking for a pairing partner, a crisp lager, hot tea, or cold glass of lemonade will do the trick.
