Whole Wheat Pita Bread image

I came up with this recipe after a search for a whole wheat pita bread left me frustrated. I used soy flour to totally eliminate white flour. What resulted was a hearty pita with a nice nutty flavor. It tastes great with sandwich fillings, peanut butter, or dipped in hummus. This is my first recipe, so I hope you enjoy it.

Time 2h30m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 cup warm water
1 (.25 ounce) package active dry yeast
1 tablespoon molasses
1 teaspoon salt
1 ½ cups whole wheat flour
1 ½ cups soy flour
cooking spray
cornmeal for dusting

Steps:

  • In a bowl mix the water, yeast, molasses, and salt. Let sit 5 to 10 minutes, then gradually mix in the whole wheat flour and soy flour. Turn out onto a floured surface, and knead until smooth. Place in a large bowl lightly coated with cooking spray. Cover with a towel, and let rise in a warm place for 1 hour.
  • Punch down the dough, and knead for 5 to 10 minutes. Divide into 6 pieces. On a lightly floured surface, flatten each piece to about 1/8 inch thick with a rolling pin. Cover with a towel, and let rise 30 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Warm a baking sheet in the preheating oven for about 2 minutes, then remove from heat and sprinkle with cornmeal.
  • Arrange the dough rounds on the prepared baking sheet, and bake 6 minutes in the preheated oven. Remove from heat and cover the bread with a moist towel to soften. When cooled, slice in half and use a knife to cut pockets in the bread.

The pitas were a bit too chewy for my taste. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

The pitas were a bit dry, but they were still tasty. I think I'll try adding a little more oil to the dough next time.

These pitas were a hit with my family! They were soft and fluffy, with a slightly crispy exterior. The whole wheat flour gave them a nice nutty flavor.
