Pita bread






Pita bread is a great bread for beginning bakers or for making with kids. The entire process of making them only takes about 1 hours , so it is also a great one for people on a tight schedule.

And this recipe is thinking in little families or that person live alone and  enjoy make their bread.




Ingredients ( 4 or 5 breads)

2 cups of all purpose flour
1 teaspoon of salt
1 pinch of sugar
1 tablespoon of olive oil
3/4 cup of warm water
1 1/2 teaspoon of dry yeast

Method

Preheat the oven at 180°c
In a little bowl put the dry yeast and warm water.
In a medium bowl place the all purpose flour, the oil, salt and sugar, add the yeast with water.

 All of the ingredients should form a ball. If some of the flour will not stick to the ball, add more water .

Once all of the ingredients form a ball, place the ball on a work surface, such as a cutting board, and knead the dough,Place the ball in a a bowl. Cover with plastic wrap or a damp kitchen towel and set aside about 20 minutes.


Divide dough into 4 or 5 equal portions and hands into a ball of each. Then make to shape of pita bread.
Place in an  oiled baking sheet and bake the bread place about 6 to 8  minutes per side, until they are cooked.
Remember the pitas normally are white only little golden.
Remove and let cool.
Carefully open and fill with whatever you want. I filled it with slices of avocado and tomato.
