I hadn’t made these homemade pita chips for a very long time. I forgot how easy to make they are and how tasty they are. The kids loved them and have requested I make them more often.
Of course these are not only perfect for school lunches, but they are a fab homemade finger food for entertaining at home or to take with you on occasions when you need to take a plate.
You can easily switch up the herbs and spices you use on the pita chips to suit the tastes of your family.
I found it easiest to cut the Lebanese breads with a pizza cutter.
- 5 x Lebanese flat bread
- 2 tbsp melted coconut oil
- ½ tsp turmeric
- ½ tsp cumin
- ½ garlic powder
- ½ salt
- Preheat oven to 200°C. Brush each flat bread with coconut oil.
- Mix the spices together in a small bowl, then sprinkle with about a ⅓ tsp of the spices.
- Using a pizza cutter, slice each flat bread into into 12 triangles.
- Place the triangles onto two large baking trays. Space them out so they do not overlap.
- Bake in the oven for 6 - 8 minutes. Remove when they are crisp and have turned a slightly golden colour.
- Allow them to cool on a wire rack completely before placing in an airtight container.
