Ranch Oyster Crackers are a nostalgic treat that you can make in your air fryer! Air fryer ranch oyster crackers are ready in under 10 minutes.
This treat was something that I used to enjoy as a kid.
I remember it was something that our family seemed to make when people were coming over.
Or it always seemed to find a way to the kids table at a family pot luck. Do you remember these from childhood?
This particular recipe makes about a half of a batch than traditional recipes.
If you want you can always double the recipe and cook two batches, if you are feeding a crowd.
Love snacks? Me too! If you love snacks you need to check out our air fryer zucchini chips, air fryer shishito peppers and our air fryer jalapeno poppers.
WHAT DO YOU DO WITH OYSTER CRACKERS?
Typically, they are used in a soup. But you can also use Oyster Crackers for snacks, like we are doing today with our Ranch Oyster Crackers.
Traditional methods use the oven to cook this snack.
Other recipes even have a no bake option. I personally prefer when this snack is heated up.
The air fryer option gives the same oven taste but quicker!
Pro Tip: These snack crackers should last about a week in an air tight container.
They are best eaten within a couple of days.
HOW TO MAKE SEASONED OYSTER CRACKERS
- Measure 4 cups of oyster crackers and set aside.
- Then combine the garlic powder, dill and ranch dressing packet into a small bowl and set aside.
- Measure out 1/4 cup of oil.
- Pour oyster crackers into a gallon sized baggie. Put the seasoning and oil in the baggie. Close baggie securely. Shake and turn baggie to mix ingredients together.
- Pour ingredients into air fryer basket or tray. Air fry at 330F/165C for 6-8 minutes.
- Remove crackers from air fryer, cool on a plate. Enjoy!
