Ingredients

• Oyster Crackers – Oyster crackers come in a variety of sizes—you can use any small soup crackers.
• Ranch Dressing Mix – Use a store-bought ranch dressing mix packet.
• Garlic Powder – Adds some extra savory flavor to this recipe.
• Parsley – Adds some herb color to the spice mixture—if you don’t have it on hand I would consider this optional.
• Vegetable Oil – You can use any type of oil you love or melted butter here.

Instructions

Begin by preheating your oven to 250°F.

Next, place the oyster crackers in a large bowl. Mix the rest of the ingredients in a glass or small mixing bowl. Whisk until fully combined.

Pour the wet mixture over the crackers. Mix gently until all crackers are coated.

Transfer the crackers onto a parchment lined baking sheet. Pop them into the oven for 15 to 20 minutes, or until you begin to see a golden brown color.
