Recipe: Cheesy Garlic Butter Ritz Crackers
Ingredients:
- 1 sleeve of Ritz crackers (about 30 crackers)
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
- Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions:
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Prepare the Butter Mixture: In a small bowl, mix the melted butter with garlic powder until well combined.
- Coat the Crackers: Place the Ritz crackers in a large bowl. Pour the garlic butter mixture over the crackers and gently toss to coat each cracker evenly.
- Add Cheese: Arrange the crackers in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Sprinkle the shredded Parmesan cheese generously over each cracker.
- Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for about 8–10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the crackers are golden brown.
- Garnish and Serve: Remove from the oven and sprinkle with chopped parsley for a pop of color and added flavor. Let the crackers cool slightly before serving.
Enjoy: Serve these warm for the best flavor! They’re perfect on their own or paired with a dip of your choice.
Tip: You can also experiment with different cheeses or add a dash of chili flakes if you like a bit of heat!
