Seasoned Oyster Crackers
Ingredients:
- 1/4 cup oil (I used grapeseed, but use whatever you cook with)
- 2 Tablespoons ranch seasoning
- 1 teaspoon dill weed
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- oyster crackers (original recipe calls for 16 oz, I only used 9oz)
Instructions:
- Preheat oven to 250 degrees
- Combine first 4 ingredients in a bowl
- Pour over oyster crackers and gently toss until coated
- Spread evenly on an ungreased cookie sheet
- Bake 15-20 minutes
The original recipe calls for double the crackers. I used half the amount of crackers and the same amount of seasoning for extra flavor! It’s the dill for me! Because these get baked at a low temperature, this is the perfect beginner snack for kids to try to make.
We store these in a ziplock bag and keep in the pantry. These won’t last long though! Perfect to set out for a get together, to throw in a lunch, or to top soups and salads.
Please tell me I’m not the only one that has never made these easy and addicting seasoned oyster crackers before 2020! Ha! Happy snacking! XO
