🛒 What You’ll Need
🥨 2 sleeves Ritz crackers
🥓 8 oz thinly sliced deli ham
🧀 8 oz sliced Swiss or cheddar cheese
🧈 For the Butter Topping
🧈 1/2 cup butter, melted
🌿 1 tsp dried parsley
🧄 1/2 tsp garlic powder
🧅 1/2 tsp onion powder
🌱 1 tsp poppy seeds, optional
🍯 1 tsp Dijon mustard, optional
👩🍳 How to Make Them
1️⃣ Build the sandwiches
Preheat your oven to 350°F.
Place half of the Ritz crackers on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
Top each cracker with a small piece of ham and cheese, then cover with another Ritz cracker.
2️⃣ Make the buttery topping
In a small bowl, stir together the melted butter, parsley, garlic powder, onion powder, poppy seeds, and Dijon mustard.
3️⃣ Brush and bake
Arrange the little sandwiches close together in a baking dish or on a baking sheet.
Brush the buttery mixture generously over the tops.
Bake for 10–12 minutes, until the cheese is melted and the crackers are warm and lightly toasted.
4️⃣ Serve warm
Let them cool for just a couple of minutes—then watch everyone reach for one!
And then another. 😂
✨ Easy Ways to Change Them Up
🧀 Use cheddar, pepper Jack, or provolone
🥓 Swap ham for cooked bacon
🍗 Try sliced turkey or chicken
🌶️ Add a little hot sauce to the butter mixture
🥒 Add a tiny pickle slice for extra tang
💡 A Little Tip
Don't overload the crackers with filling.
A small amount of ham and cheese keeps these little sandwiches balanced and makes them easier to pick up and eat.
And if you're serving a crowd, make a double batch. These tend to disappear before you know it! 😋
🎉 The Perfect Party Bite
There's something special about little sandwiches.
They're casual, comforting, and just fancy enough for a party platter.
Set out a tray of these warm Ritz cracker bites and you'll have the kind of appetizer guests keep circling back to. ❤️
