Pita
1 Cup Warm Water
2 Tsp Sugar
2 1/4 tsp or one pack instant yeast
1 Tsp Salt
2 Tbsp Olive Oil
3/4 Cup Whole Wheat Flour
2 Cups All-Purpose Flour
Dough:
I just put everything in stand mixer and made the dough till mixed , can knead with hands
Add little more water if too dry
Coat the inside of a large bowl with a little oil, put the dough in it. Put in a warm location, i put it on the counter above m

y dishwasher when its running😊cover and let rise until doubled in volume, about one hour or can leave longer
preheat oven to 475F
Put the cast iron pan in the oven 20minutes before baking so it gets really hot or use pizza stone if u have one
Divide the dough into 8 equal pieces, and make round balls, i let them sit again covered for half hour as it was too early to make dinner but ot doesnt need to sit again,roll each piece into a round flat bread,dont make it too big ,around 6”maybe🤷🏻♀️
Place 1 piece at a time onto the hot pan bake 2-3 minutes till u see it all poofed up😂then flip with tongs and cook another1-2 minutes
Dont cook too much they should only be lightly gold not browned
Put in a plate covered with kitchen towel to keep soft
