Preheat your oven to 375Β°F (190Β°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or foil.
Cut each pita bread into 8 triangular wedges using a sharp knife or pizza cutter.
Place the pita wedges in a large mixing bowl.
Drizzle the olive oil evenly over the pita wedges and toss gently to coat them thoroughly.
In a small bowl, mix together the garlic powder, paprika, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper.
Sprinkle the seasoning mixture evenly over the pita wedges while tossing to ensure all pieces are well coated.
Arrange the seasoned pita wedges in a single layer on the prepared baking sheets. Make sure they are not overlapping to ensure even baking.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the wedges are crispy and golden brown. Check them frequently to avoid over-browning.
Remove the pita scoops from the oven and let them cool completely to room temperature. They will crisp up further as they cool.
Serve with your favorite dips like hummus, guacamole, tzatziki, or salsa. Store any leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
