We made real pita bread!! It's amazing how the ingredients are all the same but the breads are all different!
Turned out really great!
Original Recipe was here: https://www.themediterraneandish.com/homemade-pita-bread-recipe/
Ingredients:
1 cup warm water
2 teaspoons active dry yeast
1/2 tsp sugar
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons olive oil
Directions:
1. Combine water, yeast, and sugar and set in a stand mixer mixing bowl and let sit for about 10-15 minutes.
2. Add in olive oil, salt and flour.
3. Mix with a bread hook attachment until smooth.
4. Cover bowl with saran wrap and drape a kitchen towel over it.
5. Let sit for about an hour.
6. Heat oven to 475 F with a baking sheet in the oven - it needs to be hot.
7. After dough has risen, create 8 balls and roll them out.
8. After oven is hot, take out the baking sheet and place pitas on the sheet. I was able to get 4 on each one.
9. Place back in oven and bake for 2 minutes. Flip, with tongs and bake for another 2 minutes. The pitas should inflate.
10. Enjoy!
