• Preheat the air fryer to 375° F.
• In a medium mixing bowl, combine the 2/3 cup dijon mustard, 1/2 cup honey, 1/2 cup mayonnaise, 2 tablespoons fresh squeezed lemon juice, 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper, and 1/4 teaspoon coarse kosher salt. Divide the mixture in half, reserving half for a dipping sauce.
• In the other half, stir in the1/4 cup buttermilk to the mixture, then dredge the 1 pound chicken breast tenders in the bowl and toss to coat. Sit aside to marinate while you prepare everything else.
• Using a food processor, pulse the 1 1/2 cups honey mustard pretzel pieces until they create a fine crumb like consistency. Alternatively, put the pretzels in a large sealable bag and use a rolling pin to crush into crumbs. Transfer the pretzel crumbs to a shallow dish.
• Coat each chicken tender, one at a time, in the honey mustard sauce and then the ground pretzels. Make sure the chicken is well coated. Place the prepared chicken on a baking sheet and set aside.
• Air fry the chicken tenders for 15 minutes or until the internal temperature has reached 165° F.
