As the holiday baking season begins, the new Keebler Pretzel Pie Crust might become the must have item on the shopping list. Whether it is the novice baker who craves simplicity to the cook who wants to experiment with flavor, this new food offering could be the hit of the holidays.

In a recent company announcement, the Keebler Pretzel Pie Crust is a ready to eat option. Whether used in a bake or no bake recipe, the ease of use is only one reason to make a purchase. The flavor is the other driver.

While many people turn to a graham cracker or cookie crust for many of their baking recipes, the new pretzel crust could be used in both sweet and savory recipes. From that quiche for a holiday brunch to the chocolate cream pie for dessert, there are plenty of reasons to keep at least one crust in the pantry.

Thinking about the pretzel crust, it seems like the salty, almost savory nod would be a great flavor to combined with a chocolate caramel pie. Or, for a holiday treat, what about a peppermint mocha pie. Basically, the dessert options are plentiful.

Many people are drawn to these ready to eat options because it lessens the execution errors. From the difficulty rolling out dough to fearing the soggy bottom, there are plenty of reasons to let the professionals take over.

What other holiday offerings are joining the Keebler Pretzel Pie Crust?

While many people are excited to turn on the oven and start all the holiday baking, others prefer to just buy their favorite treats. Luckily, Keebler has both choices on the shelf.

As Alicia Mosley, Vice President of Marketing at Keebler said, “We are excited to help spread holiday magic this season and offer families delicious ways to create more meaningful moments. With our tasty holiday offerings, everyone can enjoy moments of togetherness, whether they’re creating holiday desserts with our new Pretzel Pie Crusts or celebrating the 20th anniversary of an iconic film with the Elf Limited-Edition Keebler Gingerbread Fudge Stripes.”

The Elf Limited-Edition Keebler Gingerbread Fudge Stripes bring a sweet, spicy flavor to the cookie plate. While many people will gravitate toward the offering for the movie connection, it is the flavor that will have them buying another package.

Thinking about this holiday cookie, it could be part of that classic gingerbread house. Why not use the cookies as a roof, window, or even broken into a shingle pattern. Who says that the kit is the only way to decorate that classic holiday offering.

Both the Keebler Pretzel Pie Crusts and Elf Limited-Edition Keebler Gingerbread Fudge Stripes will be available at various retailers. Check with stores for availability and pricing.
