Pita Bread

porções2 hours 52 minutes
tempo totalIngredientes
3 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 cups warm water
1 tablespoon yeast
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon sugar (optional, helps activate yeast)
Instruções
Activate yeast:
In a large bowl, combine warm water, yeast, sugar, and olive oil. Let sit for about 10 minutes until foamy.
Mix dough:
Add the flour and salt. Mix by hand or with a mixer for about 4 minutes until smooth.
First rise:
Lightly oil a clean bowl. Place the dough inside, turning it so it’s coated with oil. Cover with a warm towel and let rise in a warm spot for about 2 hours (until doubled in size).
Shape:
Turn dough onto a lightly floured surface. Cut into equal pieces and shape into balls. Cover and let rest for 20 minutes.
Roll out:
Roll each ball into a disk about 1/4-inch thick. Place on a floured surface and let rest another 15 minutes.
Cook:
Heat a pan over medium heat for 2 minutes.
Lightly oil the pan with spray, then wipe with a napkin so it’s just a thin coat.
Cook each pita for 1–2 minutes per side. It should puff up with air pockets. If needed, press gently with a spatula to help it rise.
Serve & store:
Remove from pan, stack the pitas, and cover with a towel to keep soft.
Best eaten fresh.
Store in an airtight container for 2–3 days.
If too hard, warm them slightly before serving.
Tip: Don’t roll them out too thin if you want soft, fluffy pita. #fyp #fypシ #bread #recipe #pita
