Vegan Pita Bread


Easy Vegan Pita Bread




Ingredients

TO CREATE THE "SPONGE"

  • 1 pkg Dry Active Yeast (2-1/4 tsp)
  • 1 c Warm Water about 90-100 degrees F
  • 1 c All Purpose Flour

TO FINISH THE DOUGH:

  • 1-1/2 tbsp Olive Oil (TABLESPOONS, not teaspoons 🙂
  • 1 tsp Salt
  • 2 c Flour plus more for rolling

Instructions

  1. In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with a dough hook (or in a bowl if doing by hand), combine the sponge ingredients.  Allow to sit for 10-15 minutes and if it bubbles a little, you are good to go!  No activity?  You need new yeast ;(
  2. Add the remaining ingredients to the sponge mixture and knead until a smooth, but somewhat sticky dough forms.  It's best not to add additional flour if you can help it.
  3. Allow to rise covered in a warm place for 2 hours.  
  4. Punch down the down and form into a rectangle so that you can equally make 8 portions.  Roll each portion into a ball.  I like to stretch the dough to create a smooth top and tuck the ends under the ball.
  5. Allow to rise again for 30 minutes.
  6. Heat a skillet and flatten each ball, rolling into rounds on a lightly floured surface.
  7. In dry skillet (if using a good non-stick skillet) or with a touch of oil if you don't have a non-stick skillet, cook the pita.  Some will puff up quite a lot, some will just bubble.  This normal.  Flip when golden brown on the first side and repeat.
