Whole Spelt Pita Bread

Here are the ingredients you need for the dough

• 250g whole spelt flour
• 6g fresh yeast
• 100g lukewarm water
• 10g extra virgin olive oil
• 3g pink Himalayan salt

Equipment

• Kitchen machine or food processor

Method

1. 1(If you don't have a kitchen machine, simply knead all the ingredients by hand)
2. 2Fit the dough paddle and add all the ingredients to the bowl.
3. 3Knead on speed 3 for 6 minutes.
4. 4Shape the dough into a smooth ball and place it in a bowl.
5. 5Cover and let rest for about 30-45 minutes until doubled in size.
6. 6Preheat your oven to 250ºC.
7. 7Gently punch down the dough, divide it into small balls, and roll them out into flat rounds. The thinner they are, the more they will puff up in the oven.
8. 8Bake for 8-10 minutes (depending on your oven). Keep a close watch: as soon as they are nicely puffed and lightly golden, pull them out.
9. 9Let them cool slightly, slit them open with a knife, and fill them however you like.
10. 10All done! Time to enjoy our homemade whole spelt pita bread.

Extra tip

1. 1You can also cook them in a covered frying pan over low heat; it's another great option.
