Since this snack has been around for so long, there are tons of versions and varieties. My people are kind of partial to this Dill Ranch cracker recipe for two reasons. #1.

Tips for Making the Best Baked Snack Crackers
- If you don’t want to make your own Ranch seasoning using the herbs and spices listed, you could always just use a Ranch seasoning packet from your grocery store. You would still want to add 1 tablespoon of dill and toss with olive oil.
- Melted butter is a delicious substitute for olive oil if you don’t happen to have any olive oil on hand.
- For a little kick, add 1 teaspoon of red pepper flakes. We love this spicy addition.
- If you happen to have any of these Dill Ranch Snack Crackers leftover (surely not!) or have made them in advance of your party or get together, make sure you store them in an airtight container or zip bag so they stay fresh! They will stay crispy for 2-3 days.
