Ingredients:

  • 1 packet yeast
  • 1 cup warm water
  • 3 cups flour
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/4 cup oil
  • you can add herbs and garlic , if you like. sometimes i just leave them plain and let the filling do the talking.

Directions:

  1. Dissolve the yeast in the warm water.
  2. Add the flour, salt and oil. Also add any herbs and/or garlic, if you're using any.
  3. Knead the dough for 10 minutes, or until it's smooth and elastic.
  4. Set it aside, covered, and let it rise for 1 1/2 hours.
  5. Punch the dough down.
  6. Let it rest for 10 minutes.
  7. Cut it into 16 parts.
  8. Roll each part into a ball between your hands.
  9. Using a rolling pin, flatten and roll out each ball to a 2-inch circle.
  10. Lay the circles on a greased baking sheet.
  11. Let it rise again, covered, for 30 minutes.
  12. Bake at 500-degrees F, or at the highest heat setting on your oven, for 8 minutes. Watch them carefully because ovens differ and some will cook faster than others. They should be a little puffy and slightly golden.
  13. Let the bread cool.

  15. TIP: while the bread is still slightly warm, place each pita in an open sandwich bag to keep it moist and pliable.
