For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a sprinkle of Old Bay seasoning to the crab mixture. Serve immediately for the best texture and taste. A sweet and spicy mustard dipping sauce complements the flavors beautifully. Ensure the crabmeat is well-drained to prevent a soggy topping. Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator, but the pretzel may lose some of its crispness. Reheat in the oven for best results. Feel free to experiment with different types of cheese, such as Monterey Jack or pepper jack, to customize the flavor profile.
