PEPPY'S PITA BREAD {BREAD MACHINE RECIPE}

Steps:

• Put all ingredients in the bread machine and set it on the dough setting.
• When the dough is done, cut it into 8 pieces. Form each piece into a ball. Cover the dough while you are rolling out the pitas.
• On a lightly floured surface, roll each ball into a 6 - 7 inch round, flat circle. Cover and let rise on a lightly floured surface for about 30 - 40 minutes or until they are a little puffy.
• Set a pizza stone in the oven and preheat the oven to 500 F. Doing as many as will fit on the stone (I have a large square so I could do 4 at a time), bake the pitas for 4 - 5 minutes or until lightly golden brown. After removing from the oven, immediately place the pitas in a closed paper bag or bread box until they soften. (I found my bread box worked better than the paper bag.) Once they have cooled and softened, store in a plastic bag or bread box until it's time to eat.

Steps:

• Place all ingredients in bread pan, select Dough setting and start. When dough has risen long enough, machine will beep. Turn dough onto a lightly floured surface. Gently roll and stretch dough into 12-inch rope.
• With a sharp knife, divide dough into 8 pieces. Roll each into a smooth ball. With a rolling pin, roll each ball into a 6 to 7-inch circle. Set aside on a lightly floured countertop; cover with a towel. Let pitas rise about 30 minutes until slightly puffy.
• Preheat oven to 500°F Place 2 or 3 pitas on a wire cake rack. Place cake rack directly on oven rack. Bake pitas 4 to 5 minutes until puffed and tops begin to brown. Remove from oven and immediately place pitas in a sealed brown paper bag or cover them with a damp kitchen towel until soft. Once pitas are softened, either cut in half or split top edge for half or whole pitas. They can be stored in a plastic bag in the refrigerator for several days or freezer for 1 or 2 months.
• Avoid using too much flour while rolling them out. Keep unrolled balls covered to prevent drying out.
• Handle with care while rolling and transferring. Tears or creases cause them not to puff up while baking.
• Avoid overbaking - they will turn crisp and brittle.
