How to Make Fresh Homemade Pita Bread

Instructions
Prep:3hCook:4min
Making fresh pita at home couldn’t be easier. This recipe for homemade pita bread uses instant yeast and requires no kneading or complicated shaping. The pita rounds balloon into perfect pockets in 2 minutes in the oven. Hooray! Notes: To create a warm place to rise: Preheat your oven for 1 minute; then shut it off. Parchment paper sheets: If you buy the parchment paper that comes in sheets, such as the If You Care brand, you can fold the sheet lengthwise, then into thirds widthwise and cut along the creases to create 6 equal pieces. If you don't have instant yeast, you can use active-dry yeast. Simply sprinkle it over the lukewarm water, and let it stand for 15 minutes; then proceed with the recipe. See other notes in the post for using your refrigerator during the rising process and for alternate methods of cooking if you don't have a Baking Steel or pizza stone.
