INGREDIENTS
 

  • 2 cups self-rising flour, see note for homemade self-rising flour
  • 1 cup whole milk Greek yogurt

INSTRUCTIONS

  • In a large bowl, combine the self-rising flour and Greek yogurt. Use a spatula to mix together as much as possible.
  • Knead the dough by hand for a couple minutes, either in the bowl or on a clean work surface. Use more flour sparingly if the dough is too sticky to handle. Once you have a uniform dough ball that is slightly tacky, cover it with plastic wrap or a clean towel and let it rest for at least 15 minutes and up to an hour.
  • While the dough is resting, preheat a cast iron skillet or griddle over low heat until it gets smoking hot - about 10 to 15 minutes.
  • Uncover the dough and knead it a couple times, then cut it into 8 equal portions. Roll each piece into a ball and set aside, covered.
  • Lightly flour a clean work surface and a rolling pin, and roll out each dough ball into a 6 to 8 inch round, about ⅛ inch thickness.
  • Place the rolled out dough onto the hot skillet, and let it cook for 1 to 2 minutes. Flip it and cook the other side for another minute or two, until golden.
  • Place the cooked pita bread on a plate and cover with a towel to keep warm and soft while you finish the rest.

NOTES

Self-rising flour: To make your own self-rising flour, for each one cup of all-purpose flour, mix in 1.5 teaspoons of baking powder and ¼ teaspoon salt.
