Let’s Make it Together
Preparation Steps: Start by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
Arrange Your Chips: Lay out the pita chips in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Make sure they’re not overlapping so every chip gets its fair share of toppings.
Add Pizza Sauce: Spoon a dollop of pizza sauce onto each chip. Spread it evenly but don’t go overboard; we want crispiness here!
Sprinkle Cheese: Generously sprinkle shredded cheese on top of each sauced chip. The more cheese, the merrier!
Baking Time!: Place your baking sheet in the oven and bake for about 10-12 minutes until the cheese bubbles and turns golden brown.
Cool & Serve: Remove from the oven and let them cool slightly before diving in. They’ll be hot and irresistible – try not to burn your tongue!
