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.

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 degrees F (260 degrees C). 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 a 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 in the 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.

PITA BREAD

Steps:

• Set a pizza stone on the bottom rack of your oven and preheat to 500 degrees F.
• In a bowl, combine the warm water and yeast. Let it stand until foamy, about 10 minutes. *If you have never worked with active dry yeast before, please read up on how this works.*.
• In a food processor, pulse the flour and salt together. While the machine is on, pour in the yeast mixture through the processor feed/hole. Then pour in the warm milk. Process the dough until it forms a ball.
• Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead it a few times. Form the dough into a ball. Lightly oil a large bowl and transfer the dough ball to the bowl. Turn the dough ball to coat all sides with the oil. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
• Lightly dust a work surface with flour. Punch down the dough and cut it in half. then cut each half into 8 pieces and roll them into balls. Then flatten them into 6 inch rounds. Arrange the rounds on the work surface, cover with plastic wrap and let rise until puffy - about 25 minutes.
• Using a lightly floured pizza peel (or floured spatula) slide 4 of the rounds onto the hot pizza stone and bake for about 5 minutes, or until the pitas puff up. Repeat with the remaining 4 rounds.
• Serve hot or wrap in foil to keep warm.
• *Note: the flattened, unbaked pita rounds can be frozen for up to 1 month. Let them thaw completely, then let them rest at room temperature for about 20 minutes before baking.
