Cuisine: Mediterranean
Servings: 3
- 2 pieces pita bread
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
Cut each pita bread into 8 equal triangles using a sharp knife or pizza cutter.
Place the pita pieces in a mixing bowl. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with kosher salt. Toss until evenly coated.
Arrange the pita triangles in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Avoid overlapping. Cook in batches if needed.
Air fry at 350°F (175°C) for 5 minutes, then shake the basket or flip the chips.
Continue cooking for 2 to 3 more minutes, until the pita chips are crisp and lightly golden.
Remove from the basket and let cool for a few minutes before serving. The chips will crisp up more as they cool.
- Thicker pita bread may need an extra 1–2 minutes of cooking time.
- Avoid overcrowding the basket or the chips may turn chewy instead of crisp.
- Add garlic powder, paprika, or Italian seasoning after oiling for extra flavor.
