Do you ever...??

make your own pita bread??

Bex recently shared the recipe she uses for homemade pita bread...so today I gave it a try!

HERE is the recipe I used


There is definitely a learning curve when making these...my first few look a little more like "naan" than pita bread, I think because I did not roll them thin enough.  It is very cool to see how they "balloon" up in the oven, which helps to create the "pocket".

A couple of my thoughts after making these...

~ I started out using my pampered chef stone type pans, and switched to my metal sheet pan after the first batch and thought that worked better.

~I added rosemary to the dough as well...next time I will use "fresh" rosemary and add more, but it does add to the flavor.

~Mine definitely had to cook the full 4 min and a few of them I cooked a minute or two longer.


They really are delicious!
