Tips:

- If you don't have a pastry brush, you can use a spoon to brush the olive oil on the pita bread.
- Be sure to cut the pita bread into even-sized pieces so that they cook evenly.
- Don't overcrowd the pita bread on the baking sheet. Leave some space between the pieces so that they can cook evenly.
- Keep an eye on the pita bread while it's baking. It can burn quickly, so be sure to remove it from the oven as soon as it's golden brown.
