Worked out from this recipe's ingredients. If you're cooking for an allergy, always read the full ingredient list.

I make this when I want that warm churro flavor without frying anything, just crackers coated in buttery cinnamon sugar. It's my go-to snack for movie nights or holiday gifting when we need something sweet and crunchy.

Ingredients

Caramel Coating

2 cups of butter
2 cups of packed dark brown sugar
2 teaspoons of vanilla
2 teaspoons of cinnamon

Base

2 bags of oyster crackers
3 more bags of oyster crackers

Topping

about a cup of sugar
2 teaspoons of cinnamon
about a teaspoon of salt

Instructions

In a large pot, you're going to add in two cups of butter. Two cups of packed dark brown sugar. We're going to go melt this. I'm going to bring it to a boil.
Now that it's boiling, we're going to take it off the heat. Adding in two teaspoons of vanilla. Next, you're going to add in two teaspoons of cinnamon. We're going to mix this all up.
We're adding in two bags of oyster crackers. One, two. We're going to mix them to where they're coated. I actually have three more bags of oyster crackers.
You need a tin foil lined pan and make sure your whole pan is lined with it because this stuff is hard to scrape off a pan. You're just going to dump it on the pan. Spread this out evenly on the pan. You might need two pans for this.
Bake this at 350 degrees for 15 minutes.
While that's in the oven, we're going to make the topping. You need about a cup of sugar, two teaspoons of cinnamon. About a teaspoon of salt in there. We're going to mix this all together.
Now, I'm going to let it cool off for about five-ish minutes because we don't want it super liquidy when we pour everything on. We want it to firm up.
We're going to get the tray that we're bringing to the event because you're going to mix it all in one bowl. Adding it in there. Add our little mix all over the top of it to make it churro. We're going to mix it up. It also helps them prevent from sticking to each other.
