Preheat your oven to 250Β°F (120Β°C).
Place the saltine crackers in a large zip-top bag or a wide mixing bowl.
In a small bowl, whisk together the ranch dressing mix, vegetable oil, garlic powder, onion powder, dried dill, and crushed red pepper flakes until well combined.
Pour the seasoned oil mixture over the crackers, gently tossing or shaking the bag to ensure the crackers are evenly coated.
Spread the coated crackers in a single layer on a large baking sheet, ensuring they do not overlap too much.
Bake the crackers for 15-20 minutes, stirring gently halfway through to allow even crisping.
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and allow the crackers to cool completely before serving.
Store the crackers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to five days.
