Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces pita bread
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 0.5 cups grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil.
Using a sharp knife or kitchen scissors, cut each pita bread into 8 triangular wedges, similar to chips.
In a small bowl, mix the olive oil, garlic powder, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper.
Brush both sides of the pita triangles with the seasoned olive oil mixture and place them in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the pita triangles, followed by the grated Parmesan cheese.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8–10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbling, and the pita edges are golden brown and crispy.
Remove from the oven and allow the pita crisps to cool slightly before transferring them to a serving platter.
If desired, garnish with freshly chopped parsley for a burst of color and added flavor.
Serve warm and enjoy these cheesy, crispy bites on their own or paired with your favorite dip!
