Pita Bread

I like tzatciki with it. Or hummus. Or melt some cheese on top and eat with

salsa. Or make a veggie pizza out of it.

Good luck. AmyF

Pita Bread

Recipe by: Carolin

 

2 cups whole wheat flour

3/4 cup water

3/4 tsp salt

 

Preheat oven to 500 degrees. Mix ingredients together, then knead for a few

minutes. Dough should be soft, but not sticky. Add flour or water as needed. Set

dough aside to rest for 15 minutes or so.

 

Divide dough into 8 pieces. Roll each piece into a ball, then, on a floured

countertop, roll each piece into a very thin circle with a floured rolling pin.

The thinner the better, but there should not be holes in it. Roll out 2 balls,

then place them into the oven, directly on the rack. Do this as quickly as

possible so the oven doesn't lose heat. Bake for 5 minutes. After 5 minutes

check the bread...it should be puffed up and dry looking. If it is not done,

leave for 1 more minute. If it has turned brown and is crunchy, it is

overcooked. You can still eat it and it is tasty, but cook the remaining breads

for a shorter amount of time.

 

Remove the cooked breads and let oven come back up to 500 degrees (roll out 2

more circles while you are waiting). Repeat with remainder of dough.
