Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Pita bread
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoons Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Ground black pepper
- 6 ounces Goat cheese
- 0.25 cups Sun-dried tomatoes (in oil, drained)
- 4 ounces Cream cheese (softened)
- 6 pieces Fresh basil leaves
- 1 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons Water (if needed)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Cut each pita bread into 8 wedges and separate the layers to create thinner chips if desired.
Place the pita wedges on a baking sheet in a single layer.
Brush the pita wedges with olive oil on both sides, then sprinkle with garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, flipping halfway through, or until golden brown and crispy. Remove from the oven and let cool.
In a food processor, combine goat cheese, sun-dried tomatoes, cream cheese, basil leaves, and lemon juice.
Process until smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed. If the mixture is too thick, add water 1 tablespoon at a time until the desired consistency is reached.
Transfer the sun-dried tomato and goat cheese spread to a serving bowl.
Serve the cooled pita chips alongside the spread and garnish with additional fresh basil if desired.
