Garlic Bread Ritz Bits

Ingredients :

• 2 cups Ritz Bits crackers(plain or cheese-filled)
• 1/4 cup butter, melted
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1/2 teaspoon dried parsley
• 1/4 teaspoon salt (optional, to taste)
• 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese (optional, for extra flavor)

Instructions :

1. Preheat: Set your oven to 300°F (150°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Melt Butter: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter.
3. Add Seasonings: Stir in the garlic powder, dried parsley, and salt (if using). Mix well until combined.
4. Toss to Coat: Place the Ritz Bits in a large mixing bowl. Drizzle the garlic butter mixture over the crackers and gently toss to coat evenly.
5. Add Parmesan (Optional): Sprinkle the Parmesan cheese over the coated crackers and toss again if you want an extra cheesy flavor.
6. Arrange on Baking Sheet: Spread the coated Ritz Bits in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
7. Bake: Place in the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, stirring halfway through to ensure even coating. Keep an eye on them to prevent burning.
8. Cool: Allow the crackers to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes to crisp up.
9. Serve: Enjoy warm or at room temperature!
