Pitas

Pizza Sauce

Cheese

Oregano

Olive oil

Kosher Salt

Toaster Oven

Knife

Any other toppings or spices you like

Preheat the toaster oven to around 160 degrees Celcius or 320 degrees Fahrenheit.

Use a knife to cut the pizza in half along its edges. Careful not to cut holes through the open face pita.

If it doesn't go easily, a simple trick is to put the pita in the microwave for 15 seconds so it inflates and it's easier to get the knife through the side.

Now put a sprinkle of olive oil on the open pita face, this step is optional but it can make the pita crispier.

It is also possible to show the pita in the oven for 1 minute on this step just to make sure it stays crispy if you find it coming out soggy for your taste.

Spread the pizza sauce evenly over the face of the pita.

Sprinkle small amounts oregano and kosher salt. On this step you can also add any other spices you like, for example chili flakes for those who like spicy pizza.

The kosher salt is the secret ingredient which leaves you wanting more.

I am using a Gouda for my Pita Pizza, you can use any type of cheese you like, but if it comes sliced instead of shredded, like mine, be sure to tear it up into smaller pieces and still keep a bit of

Add any other toppings you like on pizza

Now put the Pita Pizza on a baking tray and cook them for 5 minutes or until the cheese looks nicely melted.

I am using mini-pitas, but when using full sized pitas, you may want to cut them into 4 slices.

Sliced cherry tomatoes or mini-cucumbers go great as a side for these. You may also want to sprinkle with parmesan.

Serve and enjoy this easy delicious snack!
