Pita Crisps with Za’atar

These spicy, crunchy pita bits are your new, improved crouton.

4 pitas
¼ cup extra-virgin olive oil
2 Tbsp. za'atar
1 Tbsp. fresh thyme leaves
kosher salt
black pepper, freshly ground

Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C/180°C fan, Gas Mark 6).

Split pitas and place on a rimmed baking sheet. Brush with oil and sprinkle with za’atar and thyme; season with salt and pepper.

Bake until golden brown and crisp, 10-12 minutes. Let cool, then break into bite-size pieces.

Makes about 3 cups.
