Steps

1. Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F).
2. Cut the pita bread into bite-sized pieces and arrange them on a baking sheet.
3. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon of olive oil and sprinkle with a pinch of salt. Toss to coat the bread evenly.

7. Once the pita bread is ready, remove it from the oven and layer half of the bread pieces in a serving dish.
8. Spread half of the hummus mixture over the bread, followed by half of the yogurt sauce.
9. Repeat the layers with the remaining bread, hummus, and yogurt sauce.
10. In a small pan, toast the pine nuts over medium heat with a drizzle of olive oil until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes.
