Fluffy Greek Pita Bread

• 分量: 6 servings
• 調理時間: 10 minutes
• 総時間: 3 hours 15 minutes

材料

3 cups bread flour (or all purpose flour)

3/4 cup warm water

6 tbsp warm whole milk

1 1/2 tsp sugar

1 1/2 tsp active dry yeast

3 tbsp olive oil

1 1/2 tsp salt

手順

To a medium bowl add warm water and milk (temperature should be very warm to the touch but not too hot that you can’t hold a finger in the water for a few seconds).

Whisk in the sugar first and then the yeast. Let sit for 5 minutes until it becomes frothy.

Whisk in the olive oil and salt.

Use a wooden spoon to stir in the flour and mix until a shaggy dough forms. Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead for 10 minutes until the dough becomes more smooth and elastic.

Put the dough back into the mixing bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Place in a warm spot to rise until doubled in size, about 1 1/2 hours.

After the first rise, put the dough back onto a floured work surface and form the dough into a circle so you can divide it into 6 equal pieces. The dough might be sticky so feel free to wet your hands with water and dust the dough with flour if needed.

Form the 6 pieces of dough into circles and place on a parchment lined baking sheet. Let rest covered with a tea towel for 1 more hour.

After the second rise, roll each dough circle into 5 inch wide circles.

Heat a cast iron or heavy-bottomed non-stick skillet over high heat and once hot (this may take 3-4 minutes) turn to medium heat. Place a rolled-out dough round in the pan. Cook for 30 seconds and flip. Cook for 30 more seconds. Then, drizzle about 1 tbsp of olive oil on the pita (both sides). Cook for 5 more minutes, flipping every minute for a total of 6 minutes. The pita should be a deep golden brown and puffed up. Repeat the cooking process until all 6 pitas are cooked. Enjoy topped with fresh oregano and our best ever tzatziki recipe!
