Ingredients:
- 2 cups of all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon of salt
- 1 teaspoon of sugar
- 1 packet of dry yeast
- 1 cup of warm water
- 2 tablespoons of olive oil
Preparation:
1. Activate the yeast
In a small bowl, combine the warm water, sugar, and dry yeast. Let it sit for about 5-10 minutes until the mixture becomes frothy and bubbly. This indicates that the yeast is activated and ready to use.
Temperature: Room temperature
Time: 5-10 minutes
2. Mix the dry ingredients
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour and salt. Make a well in the center of the flour mixture and pour in the activated yeast mixture and olive oil.
Temperature: Room temperature
Time: 5 minutes
3. Knead the dough
Using your hands or a stand mixer with a dough hook attachment, knead the dough until it becomes smooth and elastic. Add more flour if the dough is too sticky, or a little water if it’s too dry.
Temperature: Room temperature
Time: 10-15 minutes
4. Let the dough rise
Place the dough in a lightly greased bowl, cover it with a clean kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1-2 hours or until it has doubled in size.
Temperature: Warm place
Time: 1-2 hours
5. Preheat the oven
Preheat your oven to 220°C (425°F) and place a baking sheet or pizza stone inside to heat up.
Temperature: 220°C (425°F)
Time: 10-15 minutes
6. Divide and shape the dough
Punch down the risen dough and divide it into small balls. On a floured surface, roll out each ball into a circle or oval shape, about 1/4 inch thick.
Temperature: Room temperature
Time: 10 minutes
7. Bake the Pan de Pita
Place the rolled out dough on the preheated baking sheet or pizza stone and bake for 5-7 minutes until puffed up and lightly golden brown. Repeat with the remaining dough balls.
Temperature: 220°C (425°F)
Time: 5-7 minutes per batch
8. Serve and enjoy!
Once the Pan de Pita is baked and slightly cooled, serve them warm with your favorite dips, fillings, or enjoy them on their own. Store any leftovers in an airtight container for up to 2-3 days.
