Pita Bread

Making it is SO much cheaper than buying it, and it tastes just as good (if not better!)



Prep Time: ~55 min
Cook Time: 10-15 min

Ingredients:

  • 1 tbsp yeast
  • 1 & 1/4 cup warm water
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 3ish cups flour




Instructions:
  1. Dissolve yeast in water for about 5 minutes in a bowl large enough to add the other ingredients in
  2. Add salt and 1 & 1/2 cups flour, beat to make a batter
  3. Add flour until it becomes a rough dough
  4. Knead until dough is smooth, elastic, and no longer sticky
  5. Divide into 6 balls, then flatten with a rolling pin to 1/4 inch thick discs
  6. Keep an even thickness to help the "puff"
  7. Preheat oven to 425 degrees F
  8. Rest on floured surface for 30-40 minutes until slightly puffed
  9. Bake 10-15 minutes until lightly golden
