Ranch Party Crackers
Perfect for parties or any time you're in the mood for a crispy, salty, savory snack! These little flavor bombs will disappear before you know it.
Ingredients
- 9 oz. bag of oyster crackers
- ½ cup vegetable oil
- 2 tbsp. ranch dressing mix
- ¼ tsp. garlic powder
- ½ tsp. lemon pepper
- ¾ tsp. dried dill weed
Instructions
- Pour the oyster crackers into a large mixing bowl and set aside.
- In a separate small bowl or glass measuring cup, combine the remaining ingredients (vegetable oil, ranch dressing mix, garlic powder, lemon pepper, and dried dill).
- Pour the oil mixture over the ranch crackers in the bowl and stir till all of the crackers are coated. Continue to stir till all of the oil is absorbed.
- Spread the crackers out on a rimmed baking sheet and allow them to dry for about 20 minutes. When they are dry to the touch, transfer them to an airtight container.
Notes
- The quality of the oyster crackers you use makes a big difference with this recipe. If the cracker is on the hard side (vs. the melt-in-your-mouth kind), it may not absorb the oil very well, which can leave the crackers greasy. You want a cracker that has some permeability to the crust. The Premium brand is an excellent choice.
