SPICY RANCH CRACKER DELIGHT
Ingredients:
- 1 box of saltine crackers or 1 box of mini saltine crackers
- 1 cup of vegetable oil
- 2 tablespoons of crushed red pepper flakes
- 1-2 teaspoons of garlic salt (course ground with parsley)
- 1 package of dry Ranch Dressing Mix
Instructions:
- Preparation:
- Preheat the oven to 350°F if you choose to bake the crackers.
- Mix the Spicy Ranch Coating:
- In a mixing bowl, combine the vegetable oil, crushed red pepper flakes, garlic salt, and dry Ranch Dressing Mix.
- Stir the ingredients well, ensuring they are thoroughly combined.
- Prepare the Crackers:
- Place the saltine crackers (or mini saltine crackers) in a large sealable plastic bag.
- Coating Process:
- Pour the prepared spicy ranch mixture over the crackers in the bag.
- Seal and Mix:
- Seal the bag tightly, removing excess air.
- Turn the bag upside down, shake it, and rotate it to ensure the coating evenly covers all the crackers. Do this for a few minutes until the crackers are well-coated.
- Baking Option (Optional):
- If you prefer baked crackers, spread the coated crackers on a baking sheet.
- Bake in the preheated oven at 350°F for 5-10 minutes until the crackers are crisp and the coating is set. Keep an eye on them to prevent burning.
- Cool and Enjoy:
- Allow the crackers to cool before serving.
- Store in an airtight container once cooled, if there are any left!
Note: Feel free to adjust the quantity of crushed red pepper flakes and garlic salt according to your spice preference. Experiment with the flavors to create your perfect addictive snack
