Zubereitung von Peppy's Pita Bread

In a large bowl, combine warm water, sugar, and yeast. Let stand for 5-10 minutes until foamy.
Add salt and olive oil to the yeast mixture. Gradually add flour, mixing until a shaggy dough forms.
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 5-7 minutes, until smooth and elastic.
Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, turning to coat. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place for 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
Punch down the dough and turn it out onto a lightly floured surface. Gently roll and stretch into a 12-inch rope.
Using a sharp knife, cut the dough into 8 equal pieces.
Shape each piece into a smooth ball.
On a lightly floured surface, roll each ball into a 6-7 inch circle. Handle gently to avoid tears.
Place the pitas on a lightly floured baking sheet or countertop, cover with a clean kitchen towel, and let rise for 30 minutes.
Preheat oven to 500°F (260°C). Place a baking stone or wire rack in the oven if possible.
Carefully transfer 2-3 pitas to a wire rack (placed directly on the oven rack).
Bake for 4-5 minutes, or until puffed and lightly browned.
Remove from oven and immediately place pitas in a sealed brown paper bag or cover with a damp kitchen towel to keep them soft.
Once cooled slightly, cut each pita in half or split the top edge to create pockets. Serve immediately or store as directed.
Store leftover pitas in a plastic bag in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or in the freezer for up to 2 months.
