Ingredients & Instructions
For the Pumpkin Dip:
1 (15-ounce) can solid pack pumpkin puree
1 (5-ounce) package instant vanilla pudding mix (dry, do not prepare)
1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
1 (16-ounce) container frozen whipped topping, thawed
For the Sweet Cinnamon Crackers:
1 bag OTC oyster crackers (or similar small crackers)
2 tablespoons vegetable or canola oil
½ cup granulated sugar
2 tablespoons ground cinnamon.
Make the Pumpkin Dip:
Mix: In a large bowl, combine the pumpkin, dry pudding mix, and pumpkin pie spice. Stir until smooth and well blended.
Fold: Gently fold in the thawed whipped topping until fully incorporated.
Chill: Cover the bowl and refrigerate until ready to serve (at least 1 hour for best results).
Make the Sweet Cinnamon Crackers:
Prep the Crackers:
Place OTC oyster crackers in a large zip-top bag.
Drizzle in the oil, then add sugar and cinnamon.
Seal the bag and shake until all crackers are well coated.
Bake or Air Fry:
Oven Method:
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
Spread coated crackers in a single layer on a baking sheet.
Bake for 7 minutes, stirring halfway through for even crisping.
Air Fryer Method:
Preheat air fryer to 350°F (175°C).
Spread crackers in a single layer in the basket (cook in batches if needed).
Air fry for 5 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through.
Cool: Let the crackers cool completely. They will crisp up as they cool.
To Serve:
