Why this Recipe Works
Ritz Bits Create the Perfect Cheesy, Crunchy Base – Using Ritz Bits Cheese Sandwiches gives you built-in cheesy flavor and a buttery, crispy texture. They hold up well to baking and absorb seasoning beautifully without getting soggy.
Dry Ranch Seasoning Adds Bold, Irresistible Flavor – The ranch packet brings tangy, herby, savory flavors that coat every cracker. It’s the quickest way to get that classic ranch punch without mixing multiple spices.
Quick, No Fuss Ingredients Make this Recipe Effortless – With only four ingredients and minimal prep, this snack comes together fast – perfect for game day, parties, or easy weeknight munching.

Ingredients You’ll Need
2 (8.8 oz) boxes Ritz Bits Cheese Cracker Sandwiches – These bite sized cheese filled crackers create the perfect crunchy, salty base. Their buttery flavor pairs beautifully wit ranch seasoning and makes the snack extra addictive.
1 packet of Dry Original Ranch Salad Dressing & Seasoning Mix – This brings all the bold ranch flavor – tangy, herby, and savory. It coats the crackers evenly and gives them that classic ranch punch.
1/4 tsp Garlic Powder – Adds a subtle boost of savory depth and enhances the ranch flavor without overpowering it.
1/3 cup Vegetable Oil – Helps the seasoning stick to every cracker and gives them a lightly toasted, crisp texture as they bake.

How to Make Cheesy Ranch Crackers
Preheat oven to 250 degrees.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
Put 2 8.8 oz boxes of Ritz Bits Cheese Cracker Sandwiches in a large bowl and set aside.
In a smaller bowl, whisk together 1 oz packet of dry Original Ranch Salad Dressing & Seasoning Mix, 1/4 tsp garlic powder, and 1/3 cup vegetable oil. Pour over crackers and toss to coat all of the crackers.
Arrange crackers on prepared baking sheet evenly and bake for 15 minutes.
Use Fresh, Unopened Ritz Bits for Maximum Crunch – Older crackers soften over time, and you want that signature buttery crunch to hold up during baking.
Toss Gently to Avoid Breaking the Crackers – Ritz Bits are small and delicate. Fold them slowly with a spatula so the cheese filling stays intact.
Let Them cool Completely Before Storing – Cooling helps the crackers firm up and keeps them crunchy. Storing them warm traps steam and softens the texture.
