Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon Yeast, dry
  • 5 cups flour
  • 1 tablespoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 ½ cups water lukewarm

Directions

1. Sift yeast with 4 cups of the flour and salt. Add oil and water. Combine and knead until smooth. (Add enough of remaining cup of flour so dough not sticky and kneads to a smooth, pliable dough.) Clean bowl, oil and place dough back in bowl. Cover and let rise. Knock back and divide dough into 16 pieces. Roll out on well floured surface each piece to an 4 inch round. Keep rolled out pieces covered as you work.
2. Preheat oven to 450*F. Bake in top of oven until puffy and barely golden, about 8 minutes. Remove to wire rack and continue baking remaining pita.
