This dough can also be frozen. After it has been rolled into balls, rested, and risen, simply place the dough onto a large plate or cookie sheet and freeze. Once frozen, transfer to a freezer bag.
Whole Wheat Pitas
Makes 12-18 pitas
Ingredients:
1 1/4 cups warm water
2 tbsp olive oil
1 tbsp honey
3 cups whole wheat flour
1 1/2 tsp salt
2 tsp yeast
2 tbsp olive oil
1 tbsp honey
3 cups whole wheat flour
1 1/2 tsp salt
2 tsp yeast
Directions:
1. Add all ingredients into a bread machine and choose the 'dough' cycle. Once the dough is ready, remove and roll into golf ball sized balls, placing them on a flour dusted surface. Sprinkle with flour, cover with a damp cloth or paper towel, and allow to rest and rise for 20 minutes.
2. Preheat oven to 400 degrees and place a cookie sheet into the oven. Using a rolling pin, flatten each ball into a 6-8 inch circle.
3. Once the pan and oven is to temperature carefully remove the pan and place a few of the rolled out pitas onto the pan, being sure they do not touch. Place back into the oven and bake for 5-7 minutes - until puffy and beginning to brown. Remove from the oven and repeat with the remaining bread until all are baked. Cut the pitas in half and fill with whatever you desire, or dip into hummus. Enjoy!
