  • STEP THREE - every hour or so gently flip the bag or container
  • STEP FIVE - "marinate" the spicy crackers 6 hours or overnight
  • STEP SIX - place on a sheet pan with brown paper bag sheet, let "airdry and drain for about 30 minutes
  • STEP SEVEN - replace brown paper liner with the other half of the bag and place crackers on top. Cook for 30 minutes at 275° gently stirring crackers after 10 minutes and then again at 20 minutes.

Notes

Instead of baking them in the oven try using your Air Fryer for a single-serve portion!!! Fill the bottom of the basket with the feisty crackers and "air fry" for 3-4 minutes at 275-300 degrees. So Good!!
