Ingredients:
– 4 cups oyster crackers
– 3/4 cup butter
– 3/4 cup brown sugar
– 2 teaspoons vanilla paste or extract
– 1 teaspoon kosher salt
Instructions:
1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
2. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil and lightly coat it with non-stick cooking spray.
3. Arrange the oyster crackers evenly on the prepared baking sheet.
4. In a large pan over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the brown sugar and vanilla, stirring until the brown sugar dissolves.
5. Increase the heat to bring the mixture to a boil. Stir continuously for about 3-4 minutes until the mixture becomes bubbly and lightens in color, emitting a delightful aroma.
6. Remove the pan from heat and swiftly pour the caramel mixture over the crackers. Gently mix using a rubber spatula, ensuring all crackers are thoroughly coated.
7. Sprinkle kosher salt evenly over the coated crackers.
8. Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 8-10 minutes, keeping a close eye to prevent burning.
