THE BEST HOMEMADE PITA BREAD EVER

You will need:
  • 1 c. warm water
  • 2 tsp. yeast
  • 1 tbsp. raw sugar
  • 1 tsp. salt
  • 2 tbsp. walnut oil
  • 2 1/2 c. whole wheat flour
Preheat oven to approx. 400 F

mix 1 c. warm water with 2 tsp. yeast and 1 tbsp. raw sugar

let sit for 5 min till bubbly

add 1 tsp. salt

2 tbsp. oil of your choice { I used walnut oil}

2 1/2 c. whole wheat flour

knead till soft and elastic

cut into 8 equal parts

roll out each into circle

let sit for 5 min.

bake a few at a time for approx 5 min. or until completely puffed up



And when you pull them out, do not squish them down, let them cool and they should keep their perfect lil pockets.

p.s. for a healthier pita, substitute 1/2 c. flour for ground flaxseed.


Did you try it yet? lemme know how it turns out!
