Peppy's Homemade Pita Rounds

1. 1

   Put all ingredients into the bread pan of your bread machine, choose the Dough setting, and start it. When the dough has risen long enough, the machine will beep.

2. 2

   Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Gently roll and stretch it into a 12 inch rope.

3. 3

   Using a sharp knife, cut the dough into 8 pieces. Roll each piece into a smooth ball.

4. 4

   With a rolling pin, roll each ball into a 6 to 7 inch circle. Set them aside on a lightly floured countertop.

5. 5

   Cover with a towel. Let the pitas rise about 30 minutes until slightly puffy.

6. 6

   Preheat the oven to 500 degrees F (260 degrees C). Place 2 or 3 pitas on a wire cake rack and set the rack directly on the oven rack.

7. 7

   Bake the pitas 4 to 5 minutes until they puff and the tops start to brown.

8. 8

   Remove from the oven and immediately place the pitas in a sealed brown paper bag or cover them with a damp kitchen towel until soft.

9. 9

   Once the pitas are softened, either cut them in half or split the top edge for half or whole pitas. Store them in a plastic bag in the refrigerator for several days or in the freezer for 1 or 2 months.
