These are extremely habit forming! You can even sprinkle lightly with Parmesan cheese also.

SERVES 8 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

  • 5 (6 inch)  pita bread rounds

  • 1-2 tablespoon minced fresh garlic (or use about 1 teaspoon garlic powder)
  • 1/4 cup olive oil (can use vegetable oil)
  • salt
  • black pepper (optional)

Directions

  1. 1
    Split the pita rounds to make 10 rounds.
  2. 2
    Set oven to 400 degrees F (set oven rack to lowest position).
  3. 3
    In a small bowl stir the oil with the fresh garlic (or garlic powder) brush lightly over both sides of the rounds.
  4. 4
    Sprinkle lightly with salt and pepper if desired.
  5. 5
    Slice each round into 6 wedges (I use a pizza cutter for this) then place on a baking sheet in a single layer.
  6. 6
    Bake for about 6-8 minutes or until lightly browned and crisp (watch closely these brown fast).

OH MY! OH MY! Another winner here! Talk about habit forming. I used herbed pita rounds, garlic powder, olive oil and pepper. Also added some parmesan on top. Tastes almost like pizza crust. Thanks for another incredible recipe, Kitten!

    A very nice pita chip and you're right, Kit - garlicky! And I do enjoy garlic. I made enough for one pita round as my snack this afternoon, these were very easy to do. Although directions didn't mention when to add salt or pepper... I sprinkled fresh black pepper and sea salt after putting on the oil mixture, before putting in the oven. Mine took 8 minutes to get crispy on the edges although they were still a bit pliable where I spread the oil. Thanks for sharing this yummy treat! Made for Zaar Stars.

    These were really great! I followed the directions and recipe perfectly, but halved the recipe "just in case"; I wish I hadn't! I added a generous helping of rosemary to the garlic, salt, pepper, and olive mix, and sprinkled the chips with more rosemary before baking and the taste was phenomenal! They were a big hit here, and will definitely be made again. I highly recommend adding rosemary to the recipe, and when deciding where to put the "spread", the rougher side of the pita tastes best, I think. Fabulous recipe!
