Yeast Free Life - What About Pita Bread?
If you have recently started on a yeast free diet, you are probably wondering what foods you can eat and which foods you can't. Since a lot of bread contains yeast to make it rise, you may be wondering about pita bread. It doesn't rise up like normal bread, so does it still contain yeast?
Well, the answer is, yes, normal pita bread does in fact contain yeast. However, you need not despair, as there are alternative pita breads that you can buy that are free from it, or you can indeed make your own. Here is a great recipe for you to try.
What You Will Need:
* 1 tablespoon Olive Oil
* 1 cup soy flour
* 1 cup unbleached white flour
* 1 and a half cups distilled or purified water
* Half a teaspoon of baking powder
* Dash of sea salt
Note: If you are using a gluten free flour in your mixture, make sure you also add an egg as well, as this will replace the gluten that binds together the mixture.
How to Make the Pita Bread
1. Mix the olive oil, the water and the salt. Add the baking powder and flour, and mix to a smooth consistency like a pancake mixture.
2. Rub inside of frying pan with a paper towel dipped in olive oil. Let frying pan sit for 10 minutes.
3. Place the frying pan onto the hob at a medium-low temperature, and wait for 3 minutes and then tip the batter into the middle of the frying pan.
4. Tilt the frying pan in a circular movement until the entire bottom of it is covered with a reasonable thickness of the batter mixture.
5. Once the top of the mixture has gone dry, flip it over and cook the other side. This should take about a minute on each side.
6. Eat.
