Yield: 4 servings (32 chips)
Prep Time: 5 minutes
Cooking Time: 4–6 minutes
Total Time: 9–11 minutes
INGREDIENTS:
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 2 teaspoons cinnamon
- 2 whole 6-inch pitas, whole grain or white
- Oil for misting or cooking spray
INSTRUCTIONS:
- Mix Cinnamon Sugar: Begin by mixing together the sugar and cinnamon in a bowl. This fragrant mixture will add a delightful sweetness to the pita chips.
- Prepare the Pitas: Cut each 6-inch pita in half and then cut each half into 4 wedges. Gently break apart each wedge at the fold, creating individual chip pieces.
- Mist and Coat the Chips: Mist one side of the pita wedges with oil or use a cooking spray. Sprinkle all of the wedges with half of the prepared cinnamon sugar.
- Turn and Repeat: Flip the pita wedges over and mist the other side with oil or cooking spray. Sprinkle the remaining cinnamon sugar over the wedges, ensuring that each chip is coated evenly.
- Preheat the Air Fryer: Preheat the air fryer to 330°F (165°C).
- Cooking Process: Place the coated pita wedges in the air fryer basket. Cook for 2 minutes, then shake the basket to ensure even cooking. Continue cooking for another 2 minutes, shake again, and assess the crispness. If needed, cook for an additional 1 or 2 minutes until the chips turn crisp.
