- 9 oz Oyster crackers 5 cups
- 1 cup Dark brown sugar or light brown sugar
- 1 cup Unsalted butter
- 2 tsp Ground cinnamon divided
- 1 tsp Vanilla extract
- 3 tbsp Granulated sugar
- 3/4 tsp Kosher salt
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line an extra large rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil and parchment paper.
Arrange the oyster crackers in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. In a small bowl mix 1 teaspoon of cinnamon, granulated sugar, and kosher salt. Set aside.
9 oz Oyster crackers, 2 tsp Ground cinnamon, 3 tbsp Granulated sugar, 3/4 tsp Kosher salt
In a small heavy-bottomed saucepan, heat the butter and brown sugar over medium heat until boiling. Boil for 2 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove it from the heat and stir in the vanilla and 1 teaspoon of cinnamon.
1 cup Dark brown sugar, 1 cup Unsalted butter, 1 tsp Vanilla extract
Pour the toffee mixture over the crackers and gently toss to coat evenly. Bake for 10 minutes until bubbly and golden. Remove from the oven and immediately sprinkle the cinnamon sugar mixture evenly over the top of the crackers.
Let them cool completely and then break and crack them apart before serving.
If you don’t have parchment paper be sure to butter the aluminum foil or butter the baking sheet. This is toffee and it will stick to the pan.
Storing - Store the oyster cracker snack mix in an airtight container or bag for up to one week.
Reheating - Place them in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet and reheat in a 325-degree F oven for about 5 minutes.
