Cómo preparar Carol's Easy Pita Bread
- In a large bowl, combine 1 cup warm water (105-115°F), 1 teaspoon sugar, 2 teaspoons active dry yeast, and 1 tablespoon olive oil. Let stand for 5 minutes until foamy.
- Beat the mixture well for about 1 minute until smooth.
- Gradually add 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, mixing until a soft, sticky dough forms. Add more flour, 1 tablespoon at a time, if needed, until the dough is no longer sticky but still soft.
- Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 5 minutes until smooth and elastic.
- Divide the dough into 8 equal-sized balls.
- Roll each ball into a 6-inch circle, about 1/4 inch thick.
- Place the pitas onto a very lightly greased baking sheet sprinkled with cornmeal.
- Let rise in a warm place for 25-35 minutes, or until almost doubled in size.
- Bake at 450°F (232°C) for 4 minutes, then flip and bake for another 4 minutes, or until lightly browned and puffed up.
- Immediately wrap the warm pitas in a clean kitchen towel for 3-4 minutes to keep them soft.
