Easy Ranch Crackers – Instant Family Favorite
Need a simple snack to feed a crowd or maybe something flavorful to go with a big bowl of soup? These seasoned crackers are the perfect thing!
We typically have a packet of Ranch seasoning in the house for recipes like Mississippi Chicken or Loaded Ranch Mashed Potatoes.
How to Make Ranch Crackers
- Start off by preheating the oven to 250 degrees. Line a baking sheet with foil. I also like to use a wire rack on top of the backing sheet but it’s not necessary.
- Place a cup of butter and seasoning in a large skillet. Melt the butter over medium heat.
- Whisk the butter to evenly distribute the spices.
- Quickly drop the crackers in the butter mixture and then place them on the baking sheet.
- Bake for 15 minutes and then let cool before serving.
Tips for Success
- Don’t over heat the butter.
- Be sure not to let the crackers sit in the butter mixture too long or they will get soggy and fall apart.
FAQ’s
- Can you use different crackers? Yes! You can use oyster crackers or butter crackers.
- Can you use oil instead of butter? Yep! I have made this recipe with vegetable oil. I prefer the extra flavor the butter gives the crackers
- How to make them spicy? Add a pinch or red pepper flakes or cayenne pepper to the butter mixture for a little heat.
- Can you make your own Ranch seasoning? Of course! Here is a great recipe I use from Together As Family.
