Ingredients

A bright and herby twist on the classic seasoned cracker. Za’atar adds an earthy, nutty, and aromatic flavor, while lemon pepper brings zesty citrus notes with a subtle kick—perfect for snacking or pairing with dips.

• 1 box Saltine crackers
• 1/4 cup Olive oil
• 2 Tablespoons Za’atar seasoning
• 1 Tablespoon Lemon pepper
• 1/2 teaspoon Garlic powder (optional, for depth)
• 1/4 teaspoon Salt, adjust as needed

Preparation

1. Preheat oven to 300°F (150°C).
2. In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, za’atar, lemon pepper, garlic powder, and salt until well combined.
3. Place crackers in a large mixing bowl. Pour the seasoning mixture over them and toss gently until each cracker is evenly coated.
4. Spread the coated crackers in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
5. Bake for 12–15 minutes, stirring halfway through, until the crackers are lightly golden and fragrant.
6. Cool completely on the baking sheet. The crackers will crisp further as they cool.
7. Store in an airtight container for up to a week.
