To make things easier and to make the spices stick, brush the pitas with oil before cutting them up, then sprinkle with spices. I found that when I mixed the spices in the oil, they stayed on the bottom of the bowl, and if I managed to get any on my brush, they all fell off on the first pita chip I brushed.

Easy & yummy. I used whole-wheat pitas, pared the recipe down for 6 pitas, and used my olive-oil mister to spray the cut-up pitas, then sprinkle with spices (I just used garlic & black pepper). Served with an artichoke dip while they were still warm - so much better for you than store-bought chips
I baked mine for 9 min, and they were crisp & perfect

So good! Very quick and easy and good alone or with a dip. We had them with Rita L's #94308 Green Chili Hummus Dip and we all enjoyed them very much. Thanks Marie for a very nice and simple recipe!

These were hilarious. I used whole wheat pitas and the seasoning and baking was perfect. I did flip them half way to brown both sides evenly, which I liked. I served them with olives and a roasted red pepper hummus along with a couple of other cheeses both hard and soft. Then people started making mini pita sandwiches with them! adding cheese and hummus and olives, they went nuts, and they were right because it was SO good! Anyhow, maybe not as intended but a fun and wonderful surprise. Thanks so much for posting, my guests even asked me for the recipe.

I used 8 pita pockets and split them so I would have thinner pieces because I was wanting crispy chips. I brushed on the olive oil then sprinkled with the spices. I baked mine about 8-10 minutes. And do be sure and watch them because as Marie said they burn easily. A nice crisp and flavorful pita chip! Thanks for sharing your recipe Marie!

These were great with a sun-dried tomato dip that I made. They didn't come out quite as crispy as I hoped. Not sure if they were a little stale, or I didn't cook them long enough. Didn't notice the lack of crispiness, though, when eaten with the dip. Will make again, varying the spices.

Very good chips! I added kosher salt too. I found it much easier to coat the pita bread & sprinkle the spices on before I cut it with kitchen shears. Much better then the cardboard boughten ones~
