Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 2 (11 ounces / 311 grams) boxes mini Saltines
- ½ cup (1 stick / 113 grams) unsalted butter
Seasoning Ingredients:
- 1 (1 ounce / 28 grams) packet dry ranch dressing mix
- 1 tablespoon dried dill
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
Liquid Ingredient:
- 1 tablespoon dill pickle juice (from a pickle jar)
Instructions
- Prepare the oven environment by adjusting the temperature to a low 250°F and positioning a parchment-lined baking sheet to ensure optimal cracker preparation.
- Arrange the mini Saltines carefully within a spacious mixing vessel, creating an ideal base for flavor infusion.
- Craft a complex coating liquid by vigorously blending melted butter with ranch seasoning, tangy pickle juice, aromatic dried dill, and pungent garlic powder until the mixture achieves a smooth, harmonious consistency.
- Delicately cascade the flavor-packed liquid over the crackers, using gentle folding motions to ensure each crisp morsel receives an even, thorough coating.
- Meticulously distribute the seasoned crackers across the prepared baking sheet, creating a single layer that allows for uniform heat circulation and flavor development.
- Initiate the transformation process by placing the sheet in the preheated oven, pausing briefly every 10 minutes to softly redistribute the crackers and promote consistent flavor absorption.
- Upon completing the 30-minute culinary journey, extract the crackers and allow them to cool completely, permitting the flavors to settle and the texture to crisp to perfection.
- Store the finished delicacy in an airtight container to maintain maximum crispness and flavor integrity for future snacking enjoyment.
Notes
- Transform ordinary Saltines into a zesty, addictive snack that packs a punch of dill pickle flavor with minimal effort.
- Baking at a low temperature ensures the crackers crisp up without burning, allowing the seasoning to adhere perfectly.
- Ranch dressing mix and dill pickle juice create a tangy, savory coating that elevates these simple crackers into an irresistible treat.
- Gently stirring every 10 minutes during baking helps distribute the seasoning evenly and prevents any soggy spots.
- Store in an airtight container for up to a week to maintain maximum crispness and flavor intensity.
- Perfect for game day, movie nights, or as a quick snack that will have everyone asking for the recipe.
