Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Pita bread (whole wheat or white)
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Ground black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
Cut each piece of pita bread into 8 even wedges by slicing it like a pizza.
Separate the two layers of each wedge to create thinner crisps. This will yield double the amount of pieces.
In a small bowl, mix the olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
Place the pita wedges in a large mixing bowl, pour the seasoned olive oil mixture over them, and gently toss to coat evenly.
Lay the seasoned pita wedges in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring that they do not overlap.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-12 minutes, flipping the crisps halfway through, until they are golden brown and crispy.
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and allow the pita crisps to cool completely on the tray. They will become even crunchier as they cool.
Serve immediately with your favorite dip or store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
