Learn how to make homemade pita chips in just a few steps! They’re crispy, seasoned and so easy to make and are done in less than 15 minutes!

I remember the first time I made pita chips from home successfully. I felt like I had cracked the homemade chip code, with such little work. Homemade pita chips are one of the easiest snacks to make at home, and one of the best because they actually stay crispy up to a week after you make them! While I love a bag of storebought pita chips, I love making these at home because I can add extra seasoning to them and control just how crispy I want them. Total win win.

How to Make Pita Chips

I make my pita chips from pita bread, whether that’s bakery bought or storebought. I’ve tried the fluffy ones, low carb ones, white and whole wheat ones, and they all taste incredible. First, I cut each bread into 8 triangles (like in the photos) by cutting each pita in half, then into quarters, then each quarter in half.

Brush the triangles with olive oil and a mix of seasonings. You can definitely customise the seasonings, but I love this combination of garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, sea salt and black pepper. You could even try a lemon pepper combo!

Bake the chips, and bam, you’re done! It all comes together in less than 15 minutes, and you can easily half it or double it.

Ingredients

2 pita breads
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
pinch of paprika
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
1 tablespoon olive oil or any oil

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 400ºF/200ºC. Line a baking sheet with a silicone mat or with a prepared parchment paper or greased foil.
Slice each pita bread into 8 triangles. Line the baking sheet with the pita chips, spreading them so they don't touch.
Combine the garlic powder, black pepper, paprika and sea salt in a small bowl. Spray or brush chips with oil, then sprinkle with the combination of half the seasonings. Flip the chips over, brush or spray with more oil, and sprinkle the remaining seasonings over.
Bake for 8 minutes, until golden and crispy. Remove and allow to cool completely.
Enjoy! You can store pita chips in an air tight tupperware container for up to a week (they will keep crispy).

NOTES

I used low carb pita bread but you can use any pita bread and it'll work either way!
