No Bake Ranch Oyster Crackers Recipe
No Bake Ranch Oyster Crackers
Every year at Christmas we visit my aunt to celebrate the holidays with my Mom’s side of the family. Part of our yearly tradition involves bringing a homemade treat as a “family” gift for all of the relatives. I like to do more than one treat, so I make each family a basket of homemade goodies. One of everyone’s yearly favorites is Ranch Oyster Crackers. The recipe is super easy, involves only a few ingredients and will have everyone raving about their wonderful flavor!

You will need a large container so you have room to stir and shake. The one I have been using this year holds 10 cups.

Gather all of the ingredients before you get started.
2 bags of oyster crackers that are 9 oz each. I am able to shop at a local surplus grocery store and I can usually find them for 89 cents a bag. A huge bargain.
3/4 cup vegetable oil
1 pack dry ranch dip mix
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp dill
Put the crackers in a large container.
In a separate container that you can shake add oil and all other ingredients.
Shake until well blended.
Pour mixture over crackers and stir gently.
Seal the bowl and shake until crackers are well coated.
Let crackers stand at least 24 hours.
Eat and enjoy!
Ranch Oyster Crackers are a great snack and they are perfect on top of soup. I like to make several batches throughout the year, not just at Christmas time. Store them in an air-tight container and snack your heart out. Just be careful the bowl may end up empty faster than you think.
I really like the lock down seals on these Rubbermaid Storage Containers. (affiliate link). They are BPA Free and you can use them for storage, freezing, microwave and refrigerator. Buy this set and you can get rid of all those odds and ends of storage containers cluttering your cupboards.

I make these a lot-they are very good
I was just going to say that I haven’t made these in years and then I actually started to READ the post… no bake?! That’s awesome!
These crackers sound so good. I love dill. I am going to be trying them right away. Thanks for sharing on Nifty Thrifty Sunday.
My family has always loved these
These look really really good! What a great snack food for a party! I’m thinking of New Years! Pinning! Thanks for sharing at Dishing It & Digging It! 🙂
can the vegetable oil be substituted for olive oil or butter?
I think olive oil should work. With butter I think they will get extra greasy. The crackers absorb the oil, not sure the butter would work the same. Let me know what you try. Thank you for stopping by! Michele
Instead of regular ranch, I used fiesta ranch. It makes them spicy and I always use olive oil.
Sounds great! I will try that combo for sure. Thanks!
I make thesense all the time. However I like to add broken cashews as a little twist. EXCELLENT
