Swamp Crackers
Swamp Crackers are basic crackers coated in Ranch flavored herbs, spices and oil. They are tossed and left to sit for just 30 minutes, where they are transformed into AWESOMENESS!!!
Equipment
- Large bowl or 2 gallon Ziplock bag
Ingredients
- 1 box Premium Saltine Crackers 4 stacks
- 1-1/2 cup olive oil
- 1 tsp cayenne pepper I only use 1/2 tsp
- 3 tsp red pepper flakes I only use 2 tsp
- 1 pkg ranch seasoning mix
Instructions
- Pour all of the saltine crackers into a large bowl or 2 gallon Ziplock bag, set aside.
- In a small bowl, mix cayenne, red pepper flakes, ranch dressing seasoning and oil together and then pour over crackers.
- Toss the crackers until they are well coated and the majority of the herbed oil has saturated the crackers. Then let sit for 30 minutes.
- Once the crackers have sit for 30 minutes you can eat them or store them for later in an airtight container.
Notes
***Original recipe calls for 1 tsp of cayenne and 3 tbsp of red pepper flakes, I tamed it a tad by using 1/2 tsp of cayenne and 2 tsp of red pepper flakes instead. I like it both ways, but for grandkids and folks who don't LOVE heat as much as I do, my less spicy version, is just fine with them***
