Crispy Za'atar Pita Chips (Printable)

Crispy baked pita triangles coated in aromatic za'atar spice, perfect for snacking or pairing with your favorite dips.

# What You’ll Need:

01 - 4 whole wheat pita breads

02 - 3 tablespoons olive oil

03 - 2 tablespoons za'atar spice blend

04 - 1/2 teaspoon sea salt

01 - Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

02 - Cut each pita bread into 8 triangles. For thicker pita, separate into single layers for extra crispiness.

03 - In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, za'atar spice blend, and sea salt.

04 - Lightly brush each pita triangle on one side with the za'atar oil mixture.

05 - Place the pita pieces in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, brushed side up.

06 - Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and crisp.

07 - Remove from oven and let cool before serving. Serve with hummus, baba ganoush, or labneh.

01 -

They crisp up in under 15 minutes and disappear even faster at any gathering.
The za'atar coating makes them taste like something from a Middle Eastern bakery, but they come together with just three pantry ingredients.

02 -

If you skip separating double layered pita, the centers stay chewy no matter how long you bake them.
Flipping halfway is non negotiable because the bottom side steams against the tray and stays soft otherwise.

03 -

Taste your za'atar before mixing it with the oil because blends vary wildly in saltiness and potency.
Brush the pitas right on the parchment to save yourself an oily countertop cleanup.
