Ingredients

Scale

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.
