Ingredients

Scale

2 cups bread flour
1 cup whole wheat flour
1 1/2 teaspoons active dry yeast
1 teaspoon salt
1 Tablespoon sugar
1 Tablespoon olive oil
1 1/8 – 1 1/4 cups water

Instructions

Put all ingredients in the bread machine and set it on the dough setting.
When the dough is done, cut it into 8 pieces. Form each piece into a ball. Cover the dough while you are rolling out the pitas.
On a lightly floured surface, roll each ball into a 6 – 7 inch round, flat circle. Cover and let rise on a lightly floured surface for about 30 – 40 minutes or until they are a little puffy.
Set a pizza stone in the oven and preheat the oven to 500 F. Doing as many as will fit on the stone (I have a large square so I could do 4 at a time), bake the pitas for 4 – 5 minutes or until lightly golden brown. After removing from the oven, immediately place the pitas in a closed paper bag or bread box until they soften. (I found my bread box worked better than the paper bag.) Once they have cooled and softened, store in a plastic bag or bread box until it’s time to eat.

Notes

Spray the pitas with cooking spray or brush lightly with oil for additional softness.
