Ingredients

Instructions

  • Preheat the air fryer at 300F / 150C for 3 minutes.
  • Cut the pita pockets in half, then cut each half in three or four pieces to make triangles. I use kitchen scissors to do this, but a sharp knife also works.
  • Combine the olive oil, dried rosemary, garlic powder, salt and black pepper in a small bowl. Use a silicone brush (or your hands) to lightly coat the pita in the oil mix.
  • Arrange the pita in an even layer in your air fryer, with space in between each piece. Air fry for 8 minutes at 320F / 160C, shaking the basket every 3-4 minutes. For more crispy pita chips, continue to air fry in intervals of 2 minutes to the crispiness you like. Set aside to cool slightly before enjoying with your favorite dips!

Notes

  • Cut the pita pockets into similar size triangles so they cook evenly in your air fryer.
  • Arrange the pita triangles in an even layer in your air fryer basket with a little space between them. If needed, cook in batches.
  • Lightly coat the pita in the oil mix using a brush or hands.
