Ingredients
Seasoned Pita Cips:
- 6 pitas
- 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- Salt and black pepper to taste
White Bean Dip:
- 15 oz. cannellini beans can, drained and rinsed
- 3 cloves garlic fresh, peeled
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice fresh
- 3 large sage leaves fresh
- 1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil
- Salt and black pepper to taste
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil high quality
- dash cayenne pepper
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F.
- Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. Cut each pita into 8 equal-sized wedges. Lightly brush pita wedges with olive oil on both sides and place on lined baking sheet.
- Season pita with salt and pepper before placing in oven. Bake for 5-6 minutes before turning each wedge. Return to oven and continue baking for another 5 or 6 minutes, or until pita wedges are golden brown. Remove from oven and set aside.
- Add cannellini beans, fresh garlic, lemon juice, sage leaves, and olive oil to the bowl of a food processor or blender and blend until smooth.
- Pour bean mixture into a serving bowl and season with salt and pepper to taste. Right before serving, add a dash of cayenne pepper and a drizzle of some high-quality extra virgin olive oil. Serve with seasoned pita chips or vegetable crudités.
A little bit of fresh sage goes a long way. If you aren’t sure how much to use, start with a small amount. Then taste and add more, if desired.
Although you can use the same extra virgin olive oil for the entire recipe, adding a drizzle of a higher quality variety right before serving will add an extra “pop” of flavor.
