Description
Crispy baked Mediterranean pita chips seasoned with olive oil, kosher salt, and za’atar. Perfect for serving with hummus, tzatziki, baba ganoush, and other favorite dips.
Ingredients
2 to 3 pita breads with pockets
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1 to 2 tablespoons za’atar seasoning
Instructions
1. Preheat your oven to 425°F. Place a large sheet pan in the oven while it heats.
2. Carefully split each pita bread in half along the pocket seam so you have thin rounds. If using thicker single-layer pita, leave them whole.
3. Brush both sides of each pita round lightly with olive oil.
4. Sprinkle evenly with kosher salt and za’atar seasoning.
5. Cut each pita round into 8 triangles using a sharp knife or kitchen shears.
6. Arrange the pita triangles in a single layer on the hot sheet pan.
7. Bake for 5 to 10 minutes, turning any chips that brown quickly, until the pita chips are crisp and golden brown.
8. Let the chips cool slightly before serving. Enjoy with hummus, tzatziki, baba ganoush, or your favorite dip.
Notes
Watch closely during the final minutes of baking since pita bread can brown quickly.
Store cooled chips in an airtight container to maintain crispness.
Serve with hummus, tzatziki, baba ganoush, or whipped feta.
