Instructions
- In a large zip-top bag, combine oil, Ranch mix, red pepper flakes, garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper. Shake it to mix well.
- Add saltine crackers to the bag, seal it, and gently turn or massage the bag to coat the crackers evenly.
- Allow the crackers to sit for several hours or overnight for the best flavor. If you are in a hurry, let them rest for 10-15 minutes, spoon the seasoning onto each cracker, and bake.
- Preheat the oven to 250°F. Arrange the seasoned crackers in a single layer on one or more baking sheets and bake for 15 minutes, flipping halfway to ensure even crisping.
- Allow the crackers to cool completely before serving. Enjoy!
Notes
If you’re short on time, let the crackers sit for 10-15 minutes before spreading them on a baking sheet. Use a spoon to scoop the seasoning from the bottom of the bag and apply it evenly to each cracker.
