Description

These Mini Greek Pita Pizza Appetizers are delightful, healthy bites perfect for any occasion. Featuring whole wheat mini pitas topped with creamy hummus and classic Greek salad ingredients like feta, kalamata olives, cucumbers, and cherry tomatoes, they offer a fresh, flavorful, and easy-to-make appetizer that requires minimal cooking.

Ingredients

Base

  • 6 mini whole wheat pitas or sandwich thin halves
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/2 cup homemade or store-bought hummus

Toppings

  • 1/2 cup quartered cherry tomatoes
  • 1/3 cup chopped cucumber
  • 3 tablespoons sliced kalamata olives
  • 3 tablespoons finely chopped red onion
  • 1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit to prepare for baking the pitas.
  2. Prepare Pitas: Place the 6 mini whole wheat pitas or three sandwich thin halves on a baking sheet. Brush each pita evenly with olive oil to help them crisp up during baking.
  3. Bake Pitas: Bake the pitas in the preheated oven for 10 minutes or until they are lightly browned and crispy. Keep a close eye to avoid burning as ovens vary.
  4. Spread Hummus: Remove the baked pitas from the oven and spread a thin layer of hummus on each one, spreading close to the edges for full flavor coverage.
  5. Add Toppings: Evenly distribute the quartered cherry tomatoes, chopped cucumber, sliced kalamata olives, finely chopped red onion, and crumbled feta cheese on top of each hummus-covered pita.
  6. Serve: Serve immediately while the pitas are still warm and crispy for the best taste and texture.

Notes

  • You can use any type of mini pita or sandwich thin halves; Ozery Bakery Mini Pitas work well for the perfect snack size.
  • Monitor the pitas closely when baking since oven temperatures and pita sizes can affect cooking times.
  • Ensure vegetables are chopped finely and spread evenly for balanced flavor in every bite.
  • Optional: Add diced cooked chicken breast on top for extra protein if desired.
