Drain oysters; reserve liquid and set aside. Check each oyster by hand for shell pieces.

Mix cracker crumbs with melted butter. Spread 1/3 of the crumbs in a baking dish.

Arrange over crumbs in two layers: oysters, salt & pepper, celery and parsley.

Pour oyster liquid over (see measurements above). Top with remaining crumbs.

Bake @ 450 degrees for 30 minutes.

(If doubling the recipe, bake for 45-60 minutes).

Check halfway through cooking – loosely place aluminum foil on top to keep from getting too brown
