Ingredients in Fire Crackers
Whether you call these fire crackers, Alabama fire crackers or party crackers, one thing is for sure, you can’t eat just one! Find the exact measurements in the recipe card at the end of the post.
Olive Oil or Avocado Oil: Magically, the oil absorbs into the cracker without making it greasy or soggy. Instead, it helps the seasonings adhere to the cracker, making every bite delicious. Seasoning: You can buy a packet of ranch seasoning or make your own. It’s easy! You’ll also need 1 tsp Italian seasoning to balance the other flavors. Red Pepper Flakes: This is what gives our fire crackers their name and signature heat! Crackers: Saltine crackers are thin with the perfect crisp bite! You will need 4 sleeves.
Let’s Make Some Fire Crackers!
This fire crackers recipe is one of the simplest snacks to whip up! I like to let my kids shake them up! Just be sure to allow time for the crackers to soak in all of the delicious flavors. Then, bring these to your next holiday gathering and watch them disappear!
Bake: If you want to bake them, lay the fire crackers in a single layer on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake at 250 degrees Fahrenheit for 10-15 minutes. Adjust the Heat: If you can’t handle the heat, then you can reduce the spice level and try one tablespoon of red pepper flakes or a teaspoon or two. Use Different Crackers: For a fun variation, try this recipe with Ritz crackers, butter crackers, oyster crackers, or even Cheezits! Each option brings a unique flavor and texture, so feel free to mix and match for a snack that’s extra exciting. Bag Size: You could use a larger bag, which would make it easier to coat all of the crackers.
