Garlic Ritz Cracker Snacks Everyone Loves – Appetizer Recipes

These garlic Ritz cracker snacks have become a surprise hit in my kitchen. I mean, who knew tossing buttery crackers in garlicky goodness and baking them could steal the show at every gathering? They’re salty, crunchy, savory, and ridiculously addictive. Perfect when you're short on time and need something that *tastes* like you spent all afternoon on it. I started making these on lazy Sunday afternoons and—well, now they’re requested for everything. Football games, book clubs, “just because” cravings… you name it. They come out golden and crisp with just the right garlic punch. The best part? The prep takes barely five minutes and there's zero fuss. Whether you call them garlic crackers, easy appetizer snacks, or “those amazing things you made last time,” they hit the spot every single time. No need to overthink this. You grab some Ritz, butter, seasoning, and you’re on your way. This one’s a keeper.

Ingredients

  • 2 sleeves Ritz crackers (about 60 crackers)

  • 1 tablespoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon dried parsley (optional)
  • Salt to taste (if using unsalted butter)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, combine melted butter and garlic powder. Stir in parsley if you're using it.
  3. Gently toss the Ritz crackers in the garlic butter mixture until evenly coated.
  4. Spread the coated crackers out in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
  5. Bake for 15 minutes, flipping once halfway through so they crisp up evenly.
  6. Let them cool slightly before serving. Try not to eat the entire batch standing over the stove.
