"Pita chips and hummus are a staple in our house. This is the way I make pita chips for my family! I usually use Joseph's Flax, Oat Bran & Whole Wheat Pita Bread to make the chips -- but any pita bread should work. I have used both avocado oil and olive oil, but I think the chips made with the avocado oil are a little crispier, so I prefer that oil in this application."
