A delightful snack that brings together the irresistible flavors of bacon, pickles, and the crunch of Ritz crackers.
Ingredients
Scale:
1 box of Ritz crackers (about 12 oz)
8 oz cream cheese, softened
6 slices of bacon, cooked and crumbled
1 cup dill pickles, chopped (or sliced if preferred)
1/4 cup green onions, finely chopped (optional)
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to prepare for baking. Ensure your oven is fully preheated for even cooking.
In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, crumbled bacon, chopped pickles, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix until all ingredients are thoroughly combined and have a creamy consistency.
Lay out Ritz crackers on a baking sheet. Using a small spoon or a piping bag, generously dollop the cream cheese mixture onto each cracker, spreading it evenly.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for approximately 10-12 minutes, or until the cream cheese is warm and slightly bubbling.
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and sprinkle finely chopped green onions (if using) over the warm crackers.
Allow them to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your Ritz Pickle Bacon Crackers warm or at room temperature.
