Ingredients

  • 1 9 oz bag oyster crackers
  • 1 1 oz. packet ranch dressing seasoning mix (I used Hidden Valley Ranch)
  • 1/3 cup oil (vegetable or canola)
  • 1 teaspoon dried dill weed
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 250°F (120°C).

  2. In a small bowl, whisk together ranch dressing mix, oil, dill, oregano and garlic powder.

  3. Place oyster crackers in a large mixing bowl. Pour ranch dressing mixture over the top. Gently stir to fully coat.

  4. Pour crackers onto a large baking sheet into a single layer. (Give baking sheet a little shake or use a spoon to even them out.)

  5. Bake for 10 minutes. Stir. Bake until golden brown, approximately 5 to 10 minutes additional.

  6. Cool slightly before serving or chill to room temperature before storing in an airtight container.

Recipe Notes

*oregano and garlic powder are optional for a more robust flavor and can be omitted.

1 oz packet of Hidden Valley Ranch Seasoning is approximately two tablespoons of seasoning mix.
