Pita Bread

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!
