Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Gluten-Free Pita Bread Alternative.
Step 1
Start by gathering your ingredients and placing them in the bowl of a stand mixer.
Step 2
Combine the oat flour, potato starch, cornstarch, tapioca flour, xanthan gum, yeast, sugar, and salt.
Step 3
Whisk these dry ingredients together for about a minute until they’re well blended.
Step 4
In a separate bowl, take a moment to whisk together the warm milk, egg, olive oil, and apple cider vinegar until everything is fully combined, which should take about a minute.
Step 5
Now, gradually pour this milk mixture into the flour mixture while mixing on low speed.
Step 6
Keep mixing until a soft, cohesive dough forms, which should take around five minutes.
Step 7
Next, prepare your baking sheets by lining them with parchment paper.
Step 8
Divide the dough into six equal pieces and roll each piece out on a floured surface into a circle about six inches in diameter.
Step 9
Place these circles on the prepared baking sheets, cover them with plastic wrap, and let them rise in a warm spot for one to one and a half hours.
Step 10
This is the perfect time to enjoy the delightful aroma of the rising dough! While the dough is rising, preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C) and place a pizza stone inside to heat up.
Step 11
This step is crucial for achieving that perfect puffiness in your pita breads.
Step 12
Once the dough has risen beautifully, lightly spray the pita breads with water to help them steam in the oven.
Step 13
Carefully transfer them directly onto the hot pizza stone.
Step 14
Bake these little rounds of joy in the preheated oven until they puff up and turn a lovely golden color, which should take about five to seven minutes.
Step 15
As you watch them rise, you’ll be filled with anticipation for the deliciousness that awaits.
Step 16
Enjoy your homemade pita breads fresh out of the oven!.
