- In a large bowl mix yeast, sugar and 1/3 cup of warm water. Let sit 5-10 minutes. Then add the flour, 1 cup water, salt & oil to the yeast mixture. Mix until a dough is formed. Knead the dough about 6-7 minutes until the dough is smooth and elastic. If the dough too sticky, add more flour and if the dough is too dry, add a little bit of water. (I used my stand mixer but you can of course use your hands!)
- Place the dough in an oiled bowl, cover with towel or plastic wrap and let it rise until doubled in size. About 1 hour.
- Turn dough onto a lightly floured surface, gently push the air out and divide into 8 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a smooth ball, cover and let rest 30 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 450F with the baking tray inside and flipped upside down.
- With a rolling pin, roll each ball into about 6-inch (15cm) circle. Set aside on a lightly floured countertop. cover with a towel and let pitas rest about 10-15 minutes.
- Bake the pitas for 4-5 minutes. remove from the oven and cover immediately with towel. Store in plastic bag. Enjoy fresh! * for left overs heat in oven for 4-5 minutes. Amazing with hummus or as a pizza base!
