Pita Chips

After you’ve made Pita Bread, make Pita Chips! Or you can skip the Pita Bread making step and buy it from the store, but you’ll know what’s in it if you make your own.

How to make Pita Chips:

I tried to make whole wheat pita bread, but I didn’t have enough moisture in my dough, so they never created the pocket. I rolled out my mishapped pita breads as thin as I could with the rolling pin. If you’re using pita bread that actually worked (or using bought), don’t roll them out. Continue to the next step!


I started this whole process because I wanted to make Stacy’s Pita Chips from scratch. The ingredients listed on the Parmesan Garlic and Herb pita chip was Parmesan cheese, garlic, and parsley. Because I can, I didn’t just stop at garlic and parsley for my herbs! I ground together some rosemary, black peppercorns, dried red peppers, garlic, onion, dried tomato, and parsely–yum! Mix herbs in with a few tablespoons of olive oil.

Brush both sides of pita bread with the oil/herb mixture. Sprinkle Parmesan cheese over top. Cut pita bread (or flattened out, mishapped bread) into triangles.

Bake in a 400 degree oven for 6-10 minutes (depending on how thick the bread is to start with) until they are crisp.

Feel free to experiment with the toppings!! None at all, sea salt, different herbs, cinnamon and sugar, Parmesan cheese by itself…it’s up to you–because you can!
