Instructions

Preheat the Oven – Set your oven to 250°F (120°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
Prepare the Seasoning – In a medium bowl, whisk together the vegetable oil, dried dill weed, garlic powder, onion powder, ranch dressing mix, and any optional seasonings until fully blended and fragrant.
Toss the Crackers – Place the oyster crackers in a very large mixing bowl. Pour the seasoned oil mixture over the top. Use a spatula or large spoon to gently toss the crackers until they are evenly coated on all sides.
Bake the Crackers – Spread the seasoned crackers in a single, even layer on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 20–25 minutes, stirring once halfway through, until the crackers are crisp and lightly golden.
Cool and Serve – Remove the crackers from the oven and let them cool completely on the baking sheet. Once cooled, transfer to an airtight container to store, or serve immediately as a snack or soup topper.

Notes

For a richer taste, use melted butter in place of oil.
These are delicious warm from the oven, but their flavor improves as they cool and rest.
Store leftover crackers in an airtight container for up to 1 week.
You can adjust the herbs and spices to suit your taste!
