ranch pita chips

July 19, 2016 by kelly

chips are my weakness.

{ranch pita chips} a few simple steps to crispy home-baked pita chips! _

potato chips. pita chips. tortilla chips – any little crisp delight covered in flavor, i literally cannot hold myself back from full-bag enjoyment in one sitting.

as i got older and started doing my own grocery shopping, there has been a very strict ‘no bags of chips’ policy. that is because if i were to get the bag home, it would last no more than 24 hours in my cupboard. i simply cannot be trusted!

here in wichita, there is a delightful local bakery {hi johns! you da pita bomb!} that delivers fresh, hot pitas to our local whole foods daily. i bought my first package of them back in april of ‘15, and it remains a staple in my grocery cart every week since then.

i usually make pit-zas {see what i did there!} or use them for our favorite chicken + tzatziki dinner but imagine my excitement when i found out i could beat my ‘no chips in the house’ system + make my own pita chips!

the process of making your own pita chips is so simple and i definitely did not invent this wheel! if anything, i am very late to homemade pita chip party.

but you guys. once you make homemade you will never go back. i promise you. i guarentee you. i trust in you!

the steps are simple – cut pitas into chip-like shape, cover the pitas in olive oil + a flavor combo that you crave, then bake the pitas for 12 minutes and voila!

slide the pita chips into a bowl, roll up the foil + eat them all without sharing enjoy!

there’s no cleanup and you are left with perfectly crisp chips ready for the dippin’!

with this recipe you blanket the CHIPS in the ranch flavor thus being able to dip them in hummus, french onion dip or even greek yogurt for a lower cal impact!
or you can simply enjoy the chips dip-less and as you snack away, you might blow your mind into thinking you’re doing both!

ranch not your thing? you can blanket the pitas in any flavor you wish! here are a few ideas:

• garlic powder + hot paprika

this combo is perfect for dipping into cool dips like tzatziki!

• chili powder, lime zest + chipotle powder

this latin-infused combo is great for salsas!

• brown sugar, onion powder, smoked paprika + chili powder

this flavor combo gives a sweet bbq flavor!

• sea salt

you can never go wrong with a classic!
