Cooking Instructions
- 1
Combine all ingredients, making a shaggy dough.
- 2
Knead the dough 10 min if by hand, 5 if by mixer, and the regular cycle if in a bread machine.
- 3
Place dough in a lightly greased bowl. Let sit for an hour.
- 4
Place dough on a lightly greased work area. Divide dough into 8 pieces.
- 5
Preheat oven to 500°F. Make sure you have 1 rack at the very bottom of your oven and one in the middle.
- 6
Roll out 2 to 4 pieces from the 8 into 6 in rounds. Place the flattened dough onto lightly greased cookie sheets. Probably will hold 4.
- 7
Place on bottom rack in oven for 5 min. Then place on middle rack for 2min. This is to brown the pitas. After 5 min, you should see the pitas beging to bubble or begin to pocket.
- 8
If your pitas have not pocketed after 5 min, you need to turn the heat up for the next batch.
- 9
After the 7 min is over, take pitas out and place in a clean dish towel. It keeps them moist. I just placed mine in a bowl and covered with a dish towel.
- 10
Repeat steps 6 thru 9 for last batch.
- 11
Store pitas in an air tight container or plastic bag.

Perfect Pita Bread Perfect Pita Bread
This is a small batch recipe for 3 medium pita breads. The secret to getting them to puff up into pockets is a super hot oven (at least 260°C/500°F). I recommend sticking to white flour for this because it seems whole wheat flours don't do a good job of rising well (which means no pocket!).Great for falafel, or any kind of sandwich fillings you like. Here are a couple of my falafel recipes if you need one ;)Regular Chickpea Falafel: https://cookpad.wasmer.app/us/recipes/282549-no-fail-chickpea-falafelBeet Falafel: https://cookpad.wasmer.app/us/recipes/246975-beet-falafelButternut Squash Falafel: https://cookpad.wasmer.app/us/recipes/283109-butternut-squash-falafel

Puffy and Chewy Pita Bread with All-Purpose Flour Puffy and Chewy Pita Bread with All-Purpose Flour
I was amazed at the pita bread I ate in a Turkish store, so I came up with this recipe for a puffy pita using the same dough as naan.The tips for puffy pita are to allow the surface to dry a bit after rolling, bake them with the bottom moist side up, and to bake at a high temperature for a short amount of time.By adding baking powder, I was able to get the dough to puff up nicely.

Easy Pita Bread in a Food Processer Easy Pita Bread in a Food Processer
I was making "eterno"'s bagels and was really impressed by the idea of using a processor to make them. I wondered if it was possible to make pita bread the same way, and after much trial and error I finally arrived at this recipe.In Step 4, make sure the seams are facing up when rolling the dough out with a rolling pin. Stretch it out gently. If the dough doesn't rise enough, open it up with a knife. When using an electric oven, bake at 300℃ for best results. Recipe by Akkorin mama
