Zubereitung von Easy As Pita Bread
- In a large bowl, combine 1 cup warm water (105-115°F), 1 teaspoon sugar, 1 teaspoon active dry yeast, 1 teaspoon salt, and 2 tablespoons olive oil. Let stand, covered, for 10 minutes until foamy.
- Gradually add 3-3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, mixing until a shaggy dough forms.
- If needed, add up to 1/2 cup whole wheat flour to achieve a slightly firm, non-sticky dough.
- Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for 5-7 minutes, until it becomes smooth and elastic, bouncing back slightly when pressed.
- Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, turning to coat. Cover and let rise in a warm place for at least 30 minutes, or until doubled in size.
- Divide the risen dough into 8 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a 6-7 inch circle (15-18cm).
- Let the rolled pita breads rest for 10 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 500°F (260°C) for at least 20 minutes before baking.
- Carefully place pita breads on a hot baking sheet or pizza stone.
- Bake for 2-3 minutes per side, or until puffed and lightly browned. Avoid opening the oven frequently during baking.
- Remove the pita bread immediately after baking; they will continue to puff slightly as they cool.
- Once completely cool, store pita breads in an airtight container or freeze for later use. Reheat frozen pita in a dry skillet or oven.
