Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces pita bread
- 4 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon ground paprika
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Using a sharp knife or kitchen scissors, cut each pita bread into 8 triangles.
In a small bowl, mix together olive oil, ground cumin, paprika, garlic powder, black pepper, and salt.
Arrange the pita triangles in a single layer on a baking sheet. Brush each triangle lightly with the spiced olive oil mixture, ensuring the seasoning is evenly spread.
Sprinkle sesame seeds evenly over the seasoned pita triangles.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the pita triangles are golden brown and crispy. Keep an eye on them to prevent burning.
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the pita triangles cool for a few minutes.
If desired, garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving.
Serve warm or at room temperature with your favorite dips, such as hummus or tzatziki.
