The recipe calls for 4 cups of oyster crackers, 1/4 cup of melted unsalted butter, 1 ounce of ranch dressing mix, 1 tablespoon of dried parsley, and 1/2 teaspoon of garlic powder in a package.
- Less than half a cup of Parmesan shreds
What to do
1. Set the oven temperature to 250°F, which is 120°C. Use parchment paper to line a big baking sheet. It will make cleaning a breeze.
Gather the ranch dressing mix, dried parsley, garlic powder, melted butter, and place in a big basin. Mix everything together by stirring.
3. Place the oyster crackers in the basin and combine them with the butter mixture, being careful not to overmix.
Step 4: Arrange the crackers on the baking pan in a single layer. Gradated Parmesan cheese should be sprinkled on top.
5. Preheat the oven to 150°C and bake the crackers for 15–20 minutes, or until they start to turn a little yellow and become crispy.
6. Let the crackers cool for approximately 5 minutes on the baking sheet before you eat them. The more they chill, the crispier they will get.
To make it dairy-free, you may use a buttery spread or olive oil in place of the butter (just be sure to use a dairy-free Parmesan cheese, too). This is a great option for anyone who are fussy eaters or have dietary limitations.
– For an extra touch of heat, you may garnish the butter mixture with some crushed red pepper flakes. - Make a fast homemade ranch dressing using dried dill, onion powder, garlic powder, salt, and pepper; modify the amounts to your family's taste preferences if you run out of ranch dressing mix. - For those times when you need a quick snack or meal prep item, these crackers keep nicely in an airtight jar at room temperature for up to a week.
When compared to store-bought snacks, handmade ones have an extra unique quality. Infusing the food that sustains our loved ones with a touch of affection is the key. Incorporating little touches like these Baked Garlic Parmesan Ranch Oyster Crackers into our regular dinners and get-togethers is a great way to show our love and appreciation. Have fun!
