Pita Bread

Preparation

1. Mix Dry Ingredients
   In your mixing bowl, add 200g of flour, 2 teaspoons of baking powder, and a pinch of salt. Mix these together until well combined.
2. Add Yogurt and Olive Oil
   To the dry ingredients, add 180g of yogurt and 1 teaspoon of olive oil. Use your wooden spoon or spatula to mix everything together until it starts to form a dough.
3. Knead the Dough
   Once the dough starts to come together, transfer it onto a floured surface. Knead the dough for about 5-10 minutes, or until it becomes smooth and elastic. If the dough is too sticky, add a little more flour as you knead.
4. Rest the Dough
   Place the dough back in the bowl and cover it with a kitchen towel. Let it rest for about 15-20 minutes. This allows the gluten to relax, making the dough easier to roll out.
5. Divide and Roll
   After resting, divide the dough into equal-sized portions. The number of portions depends on how large or small you want your pitas to be. On a floured surface, roll out each portion into a circle about 7-8 mm thick.
6. Cook the Pita
   Heat your non-stick frying pan or cast iron skillet over medium-high heat. Place one rolled-out dough circle in the pan. Cook for about 1-2 minutes, or until bubbles start to form on the surface. Flip it over and cook for another 1-2 minutes on the other side. The pita should puff up, creating the pocket. Wrap the cooked pita in a kitchen towel to keep it warm while you cook the rest.
7. Serve and Enjoy
   Your homemade pita bread is ready to be served. Enjoy it with your favorite dips, fillings, or as a side to any meal.
