By Nitaj3

Ingredients

• 2 tsp. dry yeast
• 1 cup warm water
• 3 cups flour
• 1 tsp. salt

Preparation

Step 1

Dissolve the yeast in 1 cup warm water. Sift together the flour
and salt and mix in yeast and water. Work the mixture into a
dough and knead for several minutes. Cover the dough with a
damp cloth and let rise in a warm place for 3 hours.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Divide the dough into 6 equal portions and roll into balls. With
either your hand or a rolling pin, pat and press each ball of
dough into a 5−inch circle about 1/2−inch thick. Place on an
ungreased baking sheet and bake for 10 minutes, or until the
pita are light golden brown.
