Whole Wheat Pita Bread
Makes 10-12 pitas

 

Ingredients:
1 1/4 cups warm water
2 tbsp olive oil
1 tbsp honey
3 cups whole wheat flour
1 1/2 tsp salt
2 tsp yeast

Directions:
1.  Add all ingredients into a bread maker and choose the "Dough" cycle.  Once the dough has finished, divide into 10-12 equally-sized dough balls and place them on a flour dusted surface.  Cover with a damp cloth and allow to rest and rise for 20 minutes.

 

2.  While the dough is resting preheat the oven to 400 degrees and place a baking stone or baking sheet in the oven to heat.  Once the dough has rested, roll each dough ball into a circle and place on a preheated baking sheet. 

3.  Bake for 5-6 minutes until pitas have begun to puff up.  Allow to cool before serving.  Enjoy!
