Ingredients

• 16 oz buttery round crackers (e.g., Ritz)
• 1 oz ranch seasoning mix
• 1 tsp garlic powder
• 1 tsp dried dill
• 0.25 tsp cayenne pepper (optional)
• 0.5 cup vegetable oil

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 250°F (120°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or foil for easy cleanup.

Step 2

In a small mixing bowl, combine the ranch seasoning mix, garlic powder, dried dill, and cayenne pepper (if using). Stir to ensure the spices are evenly distributed.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, add the vegetable oil. Gradually sprinkle in the seasoning mix while whisking or stirring to create a smooth, seasoned oil mixture.

Step 4

Add the crackers to the large bowl with the seasoning mixture. Gently toss the crackers until they are evenly coated, being careful not to break them.

Step 5

Spread the coated crackers in a single layer onto the prepared baking sheet. Try to avoid overcrowding so that the crackers bake evenly.

Step 6

Bake the crackers in the preheated oven for 15–20 minutes, stirring gently halfway through the baking time to ensure even toasting.

Step 7

Remove the crackers from the oven and let them cool completely on the baking sheet. The crackers will crisp up further as they cool.

Step 8

Once cooled, transfer the Ranch Crackers to an airtight container for storage. They can be kept fresh at room temperature for up to one week.

Step 9

Serve as a snack, party appetizer, or pair with dips or cheese boards for added flavor!
