Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups (280g) gluten free 1:1 baking flour
  • 1 teaspoon instant yeast
  • 1 teaspoon granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 cup warm water (around 110°F)
  • 1 large egg, at room temperature
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil, plus more for brushing

    • Instructions

  • Activate the Yeast: In the bowl of your stand mixer, whisk together the warm water, sugar, and yeast. Let it sit for about 5-7 minutes until it gets foamy.
  • Make the Dough: Add the egg, olive oil, gluten-free flour, and salt to the bowl. Using the dough hook attachment, mix on medium-low speed for about 3-4 minutes. The dough will be sticky.
  • First Rise: Brush the top of the dough lightly with a little olive oil. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let it rise in a warm, draft-free spot for 60-90 minutes.
  • Shape the Pitas: Lightly flour a piece of parchment paper. Turn the dough out onto it and divide it into 6 equal pieces. With well-floured hands, gently shape each piece into a ball and then flatten it into a disk about ¼-inch thick.
  • Cook to Puffy Perfection: Heat a cast-iron skillet or non-stick griddle over medium-high heat. Carefully transfer one dough disk to the hot, dry skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes until the bottom is golden brown and bubbles form on top. Flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes. Transfer to a plate and cover with a clean kitchen towel. Repeat with the remaining dough.
