Savory Ranch Oyster Crackers
A crunchy, buttery snack bursting with the tangy, herby flavors of ranch seasoning! These Ranch Oyster Crackers are perfect for snacking, parties, or adding to soups and salads.
Equipment
- Large mixing bowl
- Baking sheet
- Spatula or Spoon
Ingredients
- 10–12 oz Oyster Crackers
- 1 Packet Ranch Dressing Mix
- ½ tsp Garlic Powder
- ½ tsp Onion Powder
- 1 tsp Dried Dill
- ¼ cup Butter or Oil melted
- Optional: Red Pepper Flakes to taste
Instructions
Preheat the Oven
- Set your oven to 250°F (120°C). A lower temperature ensures the crackers bake evenly without burning.
Mix the Seasonings
- In a small bowl, combine the ranch dressing mix, garlic powder, onion powder, and dried dill. If you love spice, add a pinch of red pepper flakes for an extra kick.
Coat the Crackers
- Add the oyster crackers to a large mixing bowl. Drizzle the melted butter or oil over the crackers and toss gently until they’re evenly coated. Sprinkle the seasoning mix over the crackers and toss again to ensure every cracker is covered in delicious flavor.
Bake
- Spread the seasoned crackers in a single layer on a baking sheet. Bake for 15–20 minutes, stirring halfway through to prevent uneven toasting.
Cool and Enjoy
- Remove the crackers from the oven and let them cool completely to achieve that perfect crunch. Serve immediately or store for later!
Notes
- Storage: Keep the crackers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two weeks. For longer storage, freeze them for up to three months.
- Flavor Variations: Try adding grated Parmesan cheese for a cheesy twist or extra red pepper flakes for a spicy version!
