Ingredients
  

4 whole wheat pita pockets

2 tablespoons olive oil

2 tablespoons brown sugar

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/4 teaspoon nutmeg

1/4 teaspoon salt

1 medium apple (such as Honeycrisp or Fuji), thinly sliced

1 tablespoon powdered sugar (optional, for dusting)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.

    Prepare the Pita Chips: Cut each pita pocket into 8 evenly-sized triangles. You can cut them like you would a pizza, ensuring they’re not too thick for even crispiness.

      Make the Coating: In a small bowl, mix together the olive oil, brown sugar, ground cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt until well combined. This mixture will coat the pita chips for a sweet and flavorful crunch.

        Coat the Pita Chips: Toss the pita triangles in the cinnamon-sugar mixture until they are fully coated. Make sure they are coated all over for the best flavor.

          Arrange on Baking Sheet: Lay the oiled and spiced pita triangles out in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Avoid overlapping for even cooking.

            Bake the Pita Chips: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for about 10-12 minutes, or until the chips are golden brown and crispy. Keep a close eye on them to prevent burning.

              Add Apple Slices: After 5 minutes of baking, open the oven and quickly place the thin apple slices on top of the pita chips. They will soften and caramelize slightly during the baking process, complementing the cinnamon flavor.

                Cool and Dust: Once the chips are done baking, remove them from the oven and cool slightly. If desired, dust with powdered sugar for an added sweet touch.

                  Serve and Enjoy: Enjoy your crispy apple cinnamon baked pita chips warm or let them cool completely before storing them in an airtight container.
