Homemade Baked Pita Chips
Use up your extra pita bread and make these Homemade Baked Pita Chips using only four ingredients: pita bread, olive oil, garlic and sea salt. These are crispy and simple to make pairing perfectly with your favorite hummus or dip.
Servings: 4
Ingredients
- 4 large pita bread rounds cut into 8 triangles {total of 32 pita triangles}
- 4 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 large garlic cloves minced
- 1/4 teaspoon sea salt {more or less depending on your desire for salty pita chips}
- Dash of pepper
Instructions
- Preaheat the oven to 375 degrees.
- While the oven is preheating cut the pita into triangles and arrange in a single layer on two large non-stick baking sheets {if you don't have non-stick I suggest spaying a quick nonstick spray on your cookie sheet so they don't stick}.
- In a small mixing bowl combine the olive oil, garlic, sea salt and one grind of a pepper mill.
- Using a brush coat each side of the pita triangles with the olive oil mixture.
- Bake in the oven for 12-15 minutes or until a light golden brown color {make sure to watch them so they don't burn}, flipping the pita triangles over half way through cooking.
- Let the pita chips cool, break the pita chips to your liking or leave them whole and serve with hummus or your favorite dip. Store in an airtight container for up to 3 weeks.
Notes
- Everyone's oven varies when cooking so be sure to check your pita chips as you approach the 10 minute mark to make sure they don't burn.[br]You can store these in an airtight container for
