Firecracker Crackers Recipes

RANCH FIRE CRACKERS

Steps:

• Pour the olive oil, seasoning mix, red and black peppers into a gallon-size Glad® Zipper bag. Seal the bag and thoroughly mix the ingredients together until well blended.
• Place all of the crackers into the bag, re-seal, and gently turn the bag over several times to coat the crackers with the spice mixture. Be sure to coat as thoroughly as possible.
• Let the bag sit at room temperature overnight.
• When ready to bake, preheat oven to 250°F. Lay the crackers on a baking sheet. Bake for 15 minutes, to seal in the spices and dry slightly. Store in an airtight container.

CRISPY, SPICY FIRECRACKER RECIPE

Steps:

• In a small bowl, mix together the oil and spices, whisking until blended.
• Divide crackers into 2 gallon-size zippered bags.
• Pour half of the oil mixture into one bag and half into the second bag. Seal and gently rotate bag to coat crackers.
• Continue rotating the bags every 5 minutes for an hour.
• Let sit overnight, then store crackers in an airtight container

FIRE CRACKERS

Steps:

• Line crackers on ends (like dominoes) in an air-tight container.
• In a small bowl, mix oil, dressing mix, peppers, and garlic powder.
• Stir until all ingredients are well mixed.
• Continue to stir to prevent the pepper from settling on the bottom of the bowl.
• Spoon mixture evenly over crackers, like drizzling icing on a cake.
• Close lid tightly and flip the container over every 5 minutes for about 20 minutes. Lightly shake back and forth to make sure all the crackers are coated.
• Store in a ziplock bag. Will keep for about a week -- if they last that long!

FIRECRACKER CHICKEN

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Cut chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces and season with salt and pepper.
• In separate bowls, place cornstarch and slightly beaten eggs. Dip chicken into cornstarch then coat in egg mixture. I have also found that you can put the cornstarch in a gallon sized bag and shake the chicken to coat.
• Heat canola oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and cook chicken until browned. Place the chicken in a 9 x 13 greased baking dish.
• In a medium sized mixing bowl, buffalo sauce, brown sugar, apple cider vinegar, water, salt and red pepper flakes. Pour over chicken and bake for 1 hour.
• I stirred the chicken every 15 minutes so that it coated them in the sauce.

ALABAMA FIRE CRACKERS

Steps:

• Place the vegetable oil, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, ranch dressing mix, and crushed red pepper flakes in a 2-gallon plastic zipper bag. Seal the bag and smoosh with your hands to thoroughly combine the oil and spices. Place the crackers into the bag, seal, and turn the bag over to cover the crackers with the spice mix. Let the bag sit for about 1 hour, then turn again. Repeat several more times until the crackers are well-coated with spice mix, and allow the bag to sit overnight. Remove crackers and serve.

• Pour the crackers onto the cooling rack/jelly roll pan combination and place in the oven for 10 minutes.

FIRECRACKER CRACKERS

Steps:

• Whisk the canola oil, crushed red pepper flakes, ranch dressing mix, and chili powder together in a bowl.
• Divide the saltine crackers evenly into 2 1-gallon-sized sealable bags. Pour the oil mixture evenly over the crackers. Seal the bag and flip to allow the oil mixture to run over the crackers for 5 minutes; flip again. Repeat the flipping every five minutes to evenly coat the crackers for about 1 hour. Remove the crackers from the bags and spread onto large platters. Allow to sit overnight before serving.
