After making homemade pita bread, I had some left over the next day and wanted to make chips. Have you ever tried them? It’s really great and these pita chips go perfectly with 3 recipes I made, guacamole, hummus with feta and chicken livers with pomegranate… (they will be published soon…) 😉
In fact, this recipe can be made with many types of flatbreads. Pita breads are particularly suitable, as are naans for example. This allows you to reuse an old bread for a new recipe, in this case chips!
The principle is to brush the bread with a little olive oil, to season it according to your taste, you put it in the oven for a few minutes, and there you go! It only remains to let it cool and to serve it with spreads, it is a pure delight!
It’s exactly the same principle as homemade croutons, to reuse hard bread without wasting it and in the case of pita chips, it’s a great replacement for store-bought nacho chips. Speaking of nacho chips, I’m looking for a non-fried recipe if you have a good one 😉 Thanks!
