Salted Caramel Cracker Bites (Mini Saltine Snack)
These salted caramel cracker bites are crisp, buttery, and sweet with a perfect hit of salt in every bite. Mini saltines are coated in a quick brown sugar and butter mixture, baked until golden, and finished with coarse salt for that classic salted caramel flavor.

Ingredients
- 11 oz mini saltine crackers
- 1 cup butter
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 2 teaspoons vanilla
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- Coarse salt
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Spray the paper with nonstick cooking spray and set aside. Add mini saltine crackers to a large mixing bowl.
- In a saucepan, add butter and melt over medium heat until melted, stirring frequently. Add brown sugar and continue to cook and stir until boiling. Let boil (while still stirring) for 2 minutes or until sugar is dissolved. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla and cinnamon.
- Pour mixture on top of crackers and mix well to evenly distribute.
- Spread crackers onto prepared baking sheet, spreading evenly as best as you can. Bake for 10 minutes, flipping and tossing the crackers halfway through baking.
- When finished baking, remove from oven and spread onto a large sheet of wax paper. Try to keep crackers in a single layer and top with coarse salt. If you leave them touching, they will just connect together (which is still delicious and totally fine too). Let stand to cool completely.
