Get out and measure your ingredients.
On your work surface, cut pitas into small triangles. I use a pizza cutter but a sharp knife will work just fine..
I slice the pita in half so there are 2 pieces. In half again so there are 4 and then cut all of the remaining pices in half too for a total of 8 triangles total. With 4 pitas you're going to end up with 32 triangles.
Brush olive oil over top.
Sprinkle salt and pepper evenly on top.
Air fry at 350ºF for 4-5 minutes.
Or until chips start to turn golden brown.
Remove from air fryer and serve.
Enjoy.
Every bite!

Spicy - add chili pepper flakes while cooking to imbue heat into the dish, or banana peppers
Thinner, Crispier Chips - Separate your pocket pita into two pieces and reduce cooking time to use these for a snack or a lighter dip like our chipotle lime dip, buttermilk ranch or creamy dill dip.
Thicker Chips - use a pocket pita and do not separate it or use flatbread for a stronger chip to use with heavier dips like our bagel dip, copycat Neiman Markus million dollar dip or slow roasted onion dip.
Seasoning Options - add Italian seasoning, onion powder, garlic powder, taco seasoning, everything bagel seasoning, poppy seeds, sesame seeds, Za'atar (thyme and toasted sesame seeds), to olive oil before brushing on your pitas
Heat - add red pepper flakes, cayenne pepper or ancho chili powder. You can also add a few dashes of hot sauce or sriracha to your olive or vegetable oil
Kid friendly - use melted butter instead of oil and add vanilla bean sugar or cinnamon sugar on to chips before cooking. Use on a dessert dip like our chocolate chip cookie dough dip or our cream cheese dip, perfect for fruit too!
