I love homemade dips, and I love making my own hummus but it wouldn’t be the same without crunchy, warm pita chips packed with olive oil and spices.
Why You’ll Love These Pita Chips
Homemade pita chips are some of the best, easy chips you can make at home to dip into an Eggplant Dip. It takes under 20 minutes to make, and they are also naturally:

If you love thin, crispy food to dip in hummus and sauce, let me show you how to make baked pita chips at home and impress all your guests.
Ingredients For Baked Pita Chips
You only need a few ingredients and the right technique to cut the pita chips into small pita triangles.
Whole Wheat Pita Bread Pockets – we used pitas that are 5 inches in diameter (12cm). You can use bigger pitas, but you will need only 4 large 6.5-inch pockets. Extra Virgin Olive Oil or avocado oil – I recommend a high smoke point oil Salt– for salty chips Oregano – or feel free to use any dried herbs you like dried rosemary, Italian seasoning, dried basil Paprika or for a cheese flavor try nutritional yeast, or other spices to create a range of pita chips flavors : turmeric, cumin, curry powder. Garlic Powder – for flavor, or try onion powder instead

Adding Flavors To Baked Pita Chips
Let the pita chips cool down at room temperature for a few minutes on the baking sheet, then serve them with your favorite dip. I like to sprinkle and toss some extra on top of the warm chips like:
Sea salt flakes Dried thyme Fresh chopped parsley Dried basil Chili flakes for a spicy flavor
