Ingredients
Preparation method
Ingredients overview
- 460 g whole wheat spelt flour
- 7 g dry yeast
- 15 g raw cane sugar
- 15 g rapeseed oil
- 5 g salt
- 250 ml still water
In a large bowl, mix 420 g whole wheat spelt flour with the dry yeast, raw cane sugar, and 1 tsp salt. Add 250 ml lukewarm water and 1 tbsp rapeseed oil and knead everything into a smooth dough. Cover the bowl with a kitchen towel and let the dough rise in a warm place for about 30 minutes.
Preheat the oven to 230 °C top/bottom heat. Line a baking sheet with baking paper. Dust the work surface with the remaining 40 g flour. Divide the risen dough into 6 equal pieces and form each piece into a ball. Roll out the balls on the floured surface with a rolling pin into flatbreads about 1–2 cm thick.
Place the flatbreads on the prepared baking sheet (depending on size, about 3 pieces fit on one sheet) and bake in the hot oven at 220–230 °C for about 4–5 minutes. Immediately after baking, wrap the finished pita breads in a clean kitchen towel and let them rest for at least 15 minutes to keep them soft. Fill as desired or serve as a side dish.
Chef's tip
The pita breads stay fresh and soft longer in a plastic bag. You can briefly reheat them in a toaster or oven before eating.
