Baked Seasoned Ritz Crackers : A Crispy Snack

If you’re looking for an easy and flavorful snack, these Baked Seasoned Ritz Crackers are the perfect choice!

Ingredients

Scale

  • 2 sleeves Ritz crackers (about 60 crackers)
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted (60g)
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • ½ teaspoon paprika (or smoked paprika for extra flavor)
  • ½ teaspoon dried parsley
  • ½ teaspoon salt (adjust to taste)
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • ½ teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional, for a spicy kick)

Instructions

Step 1: Preheat the Oven

Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2: Prepare the Seasoning Mix

  1. In a small bowl, whisk together melted butter, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, dried parsley, salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes.
  2. Stir until well combined.

Step 3: Coat the Crackers

  1. Place the Ritz crackers in a large mixing bowl.
  2. Drizzle the seasoned butter mixture over the crackers.
  3. Gently toss until all crackers are evenly coated.

Step 4: Arrange and Bake

  1. Spread the seasoned crackers in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
  2. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until golden and crispy.
  3. Remove from the oven and let them cool for 5 minutes before serving.

Notes

  • Use Fresh Crackers: Stale crackers won’t crisp up as well.
  • Don’t Overload with Butter: A light coating ensures they stay crunchy, not soggy.
  • Flip Halfway Through Baking: For an extra crispy texture, turn the crackers over at the 5-minute mark.
