Quick and easy pita bread

While there are lots of recipes out there, the criteria I use for making it on my blog is that the recipe must be very simple, and only use ingredients which are easily available.

After trying several different pita bread recipes, I settled on this one for the simple reason that it was so quick and easy to make. 

Super easy pita breads

 

Pita bread

 

(Makes x6)

 

25 g yeast

2 dl lukewarm water

1 ss oil

1 ss sugar

½ ts salt

5 dl flour

 

-       Melt the yeast in the lukewarm water + sugar.

-       Add the oil, then mix in the flour and salt.

-       Knead the dough, then cover, and let rise until double in size.

-       Preheat oven to 250°

-       Divide the dough in six and form into balls, cover and let rest 5-10 minutes.

-       Flatten the balls with your hands until they are about 1/2 cm thick.

-       Bake immediately in the hot oven. They bake fast, about 5-8 minutes, and are ready when they have puffed up evenly and are slightly brown on the top.

-       Let the pitas cool on a rack and serve. They are best served fresh.
