FAQ

What if my dough is too sticky?
Don’t worry! Vegan yogurt brands can vary in consistency. If your dough feels too sticky, simply sprinkle in more self-rising flour a tablespoon at a time while kneading or rolling it out until it’s smooth and workable.

Can I make these gluten-free?
You can try using a gluten-free self-rising flour blend, but results may vary depending on the brand. Be sure to use a yogurt that complements the texture. The pita may be a bit more delicate, but still tasty!

How do I store leftover pita bread?
Once cooled, store pita bread in an airtight container or resealable bag at room temperature for up to 2 days, or refrigerate for up to 5 days. To reheat, warm them in a skillet or pop them in the toaster.

Can I freeze the pita bread?
Yes! These freeze beautifully. Stack cooled pitas with parchment paper between each one, place in a freezer-safe bag, and freeze for up to 2 months. Reheat in a skillet or oven until warm and soft.

Why didn’t my pita puff up?
If your skillet isn’t hot enough or the dough is too thick, it may not puff. Try rolling the dough evenly to about ¼-inch thick and preheating the pan well before cooking.

Ingredients

2 cups self-rising flour
1 cup vegan yogurt (look for a thick, high-protein variety like almond or soy-based Greek-style)

Directions

Mix the dough – In a large bowl, combine the self-rising flour and vegan yogurt. Stir until a shaggy dough forms. It will be a little sticky.
Knead it – Turn the dough onto a floured surface and knead for about 5 minutes until it’s smooth and elastic. If it’s sticky, add a touch more flour.
Divide & Roll – Cut the dough into 4 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a ball, then flatten with a rolling pin into circles about ¼ inch thick.
Cook the pitas – Bake in the oven at 400 for 12-15 minutes or until slightly brown.
Cool & Serve – Let them cool slightly before serving. Perfect warm, but also great stored for later.
