Ingredients
1 sleeve (about 30) Ritz Crackers – buttery, flaky base
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted – for coating the crackers evenly
1 teaspoon garlic powder – gives that signature garlicky flavor
½ teaspoon onion powder – adds a subtle savory depth
1 teaspoon dried parsley – optional, for color and freshness
¼ teaspoon salt – enhances the flavor
Optional:
2 tablespoons grated parmesan – for a cheesy twist
¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes – for a little heat
¼ teaspoon paprika – adds warmth and subtle smokiness
Instructions
Preheat oven to 300°F (150°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Melt butter until golden but not browned.
In a bowl, combine garlic powder, onion powder, dried parsley, salt, and optional add-ins.
Toss crackers in the melted butter and seasoning until evenly coated.
Spread crackers in a single layer on the baking sheet.
Bake for 15–20 minutes, stirring halfway through, until lightly golden.
Cool completely before serving; store extras in an airtight container.
Notes
Make-ahead: Toss crackers in butter and seasoning up to 12 hours ahead; bake before serving.
Storage: Airtight container at room temperature, up to 5 days.
Revive crispiness: Warm in oven at 300°F for 3–5 minutes.
Variations: Add parmesan, red pepper flakes, paprika, or swap herbs like rosemary or thyme.
