Ingredients
1 sleeve Ritz crackers (about 30 crackers)
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon onion powder (optional)
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese (optional)
1 teaspoon dried parsley, for garnish (optional)
Instructions
Step 1: Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat for easy cleanup.
Step 2: Prepare the Seasoning Mix
In a small bowl, mix the melted butter, garlic powder, and onion powder (if using).
If you’re adding Parmesan cheese, set it aside for sprinkling later.
Step 3: Coat the Crackers
Arrange the Ritz crackers in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
Using a pastry brush or spoon, lightly coat each cracker with the butter mixture.
Step 4: Add Cheese (Optional)
If desired, sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese evenly over the crackers.
Step 5: Bake
Bake in the preheated oven for 8–10 minutes, or until the crackers are golden and fragrant.
Keep an eye on them to prevent burning.
Step 6: Garnish and Serve
Remove the crackers from the oven and sprinkle with dried parsley for a pop of color.
Let cool slightly before serving.
