These EASY Keto Pita Chips are the perfect low carb chip for dipping and scooping!

It’s not a secret that I’m a sucker for snacks that crunch. I’ve been known to throw down a bag of pretzels or cheese puffs in one sitting, and while that’s nothing to be proud of, I do believe it gives me some authority when it comes to crunchy chip-like snacks. My verdict is that these Keto Pita Chips are delicious.

These gluten-free pita chips are perfect for scooping up dips like Charred Eggplant Dip, french onion dip, spinach and artichoke dip, or even a low-carb hummus. They also make a great keto tortilla chip or even used as corn tortillas would be for tacos! Greek tacos anyone??

Let’s get to the ins and outs of the recipe:

What are the ingredients in Keto Pita Chips?

All of the ingredients in these keto pita chips are low-carb of course and perfect for a keto diet. They are also grain-free.

  • almond flour

  • coconut flour

  • water

  • egg

  • spices

Can I just use almond flour or just use coconut flour?

Nope, the combo of flours is what makes these pita chips have the structure they do. To swap one out would need different ratios for the other ingredients like water and egg in the recipe. As always, feel free to experiment and leave your results in the comments below for other folks to see!

Can I double the batch?

Or triple, or quadruple. Yes, totally feel free to scale the size here. For the second step, you’ll need to switch from baking the chips in the cast iron skillet to baking them on a sheet pan since they all won’t fit into the skillet if you scale.

Can I make actual pita bread with this recipe instead of chips?

Sure thing! Make the pita bread as normal, then in the second step only bake the bread for 15 or so minutes until it’s hardened just a bit but is still flexible enough for folding or tearing.

This also makes wonderful garlic bread, just melt a bit of butter or olive oil with garlic powder and brush over the bread or chips in the last few minutes of baking.

What is the nutritional information for these low-carb pita chips?

As always, you can find the full nutritional breakdown including the carb count (total carbs and net carbs) at the bottom of the recipe card. You can find the serving size/yield at the top of the recipe card. You should always double-check your specific ingredients as different brand’s ingredients may have different values.

    I don’t understand step 4. “Place bake into skillet and transfer to oven”. Have read it several times. Please explain. I would love to make these.

      Hi Rose, apologies for the typo. That should read “back” not “bake”. The recipe instructions have been updated.

    In these Covid19 days it seems I can’t find baking soda anywhere. Could I use baking powder at all? And if so, how much would I need? These chips look really good and I’d love to give them a go. Thanks!

      To swap those out you’d want to use 3x the amount of baking powder to replace baking soda. It may lead to a funky metallic taste but it’s worth a try!

      Hello,

      I don’t see yield in the recipe. Is it two round pitas/16 chips? Thanks!

        Yes, it’s two rounds cut into 8 chips each so 16 chips total.

    Just curious about the serving size. How many chips make up one serving? The whole batch? 😊

One of our favorite salsas has always been the taqueria-style jalapeño sauce that’s sometimes served with street-style tacos at your local Mexican restaurant. It’s richer than a salsa fresca or pico de gallo and is super creamy from the cooked jalapeños. We love the richness of it and it goes so well with so many things.

The combination of the crumbled walnuts, tender cauliflower, and smoky chipotle peppers in adobo sauce create a filling that, while it resembles ground beef, is much more layered in flavors.⁠
⁠
The toppings are completely up to you, these are just our go-to’s. Some type of creamy sauce would be delicious too. Maybe a bit of dairy-free (or regular) sour cream mixed with a bit of extra chipotle in adobo? Yes, that sounds just perfect. You can grab the recipe link in our bio!⁠

With our neighborhood seeing multiple crimes from break-ins, a kidnapping, and carjackings in the past week, the heartbreaking situation in Ukraine, Texas's ambivalence towards human rights, and the ongoing pandemic, times are bleak. But there's also beauty and comfort. For us, beauty was found in a walk around our neighborhood admiring the blooming trees ready for spring (swipe for photos), and comfort found in nourishing meals that feed our bodies as well as our souls. If you missed our new recipe last week, we shared this vegetable soup from our cookbook. It's loaded with veggies and is super comforting to us, reminding us of the vegetable soup we ate as kids, maybe it will be comforting to you too. Our thoughts are with humanity as a whole, may we remember that we're all the same and we all deserve peace.
