Instructions:

Arrange the pita triangles in a single layer on a baking sheet. If you have a smaller baking sheet, you may need to do this in batches.

Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for about 10-12 minutes, or until the pita triangles are golden brown and crispy. Keep an eye on them to prevent burning, as some ovens may vary in cooking time.
