Fire Crackers! (Super Easy Seasoned Saltines)

Step 1

Place canola oil, crushed red pepper flakes, dry Ranch dressing mix, garlic powder, and onion powder in a jumbo (2-gallon) Ziploc bag. Seal bag and work mixture with your hands to thoroughly combine the oil and seasonings.

Step 2

Add crackers to the bag.

Step 3

Seal Ziploc bag with air in it (to allow crackers some room to move around).

Step 4

Gently turn bag over and over to tumble crackers around until all crackers are coated with the oil mixture.

Step 5

Let the bag sit for about an hour, then turn again. Repeat several times until all of the oil mixture is absorbed.

Step 6

Allow crackers to rest in the bag overnight to best develop their flavor.

Step 7

Store in an airtight container for up to about 1 week.

Step 8

Substitute 1 (16-ounce) box of regular-sized Saltine crackers if you'd like to make larger Fire Crackers! -- Use all 4 sleeves of crackers from the box.

Step 9

You can use a large shallow container with a tight-fitting lid instead of a jumbo Ziploc bag.
