Ingredients

  • 4 pieces Pita bread
  • 3 tablespoons Olive oil
  • 2 teaspoons Ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon Sea salt
  • 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

Cut each pita bread into 8 equal-sized wedges by slicing it like a pizza. If your pita bread separates into layers, gently pull them apart for thinner chips.

Step 3

In a small bowl, combine olive oil, ground cumin, garlic powder, sea salt, and black pepper. Mix well to form a seasoned oil.

Step 4

Place the pita wedges in a large mixing bowl. Drizzle the seasoned oil over the pita wedges and gently toss to ensure each piece is evenly coated.

Step 5

Spread the seasoned pita wedges in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Avoid overcrowding to ensure the chips crisp up evenly.

Step 6

Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, turning the chips over halfway through baking, until they are golden brown and crispy.

Step 7

Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the pita chips cool completely on a wire rack to avoid sogginess.

Step 8

Serve immediately with your favorite dips like hummus, tzatziki, or baba ghanoush, or store in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
