Homemade, whole wheat pita bites

After some reflection, I decided the pita I made last Sunday deserved its own, dedicated post. It's an absurdly easy recipe, which is exactly why it warranted a post. These are too easy not to make if you love pita bread. While I made these bite sized using a mini spice tin (or the tiny tin your ketchup comes in when you're out to eat), you can make them as large as you want!

What you need: whole wheat flour, active dry yeast, sugar, olive oil, salt, and warm water (not in that order!) These are generally things you have on hand anyway, though you may have all purpose white flour rather than whole wheat. You mix, you rest, you roll out, then bake. Easy peasy! Go to Veg Recipes of India for the recipe: Make your own pita bread



I bake my pita in the oven, but feel free to use any method described in the recipe. This is a recipe added to that list of, "will never buy in the store again" foods. These pita bites are pillowy, chewy, and perfect as part of your dinner or as a snack to dip in your hummus! Store bought pita? NEVER AGAIN!!
