Please keep that in mind before changing up any ingredients in this recipe! I will note, though, that an all purpose flour should be fine to substitute in this recipe.

A NOTE ON CALORIE COUNT, NUTRITIONAL INFO AND SERVING SIZES
Due to my past experiences, I do not include most of the above information within my recipes as it is unsafe for me to do so personally. While I try to share a rough estimate when it comes to the serving size, please note that it is very subjective as we all have different hunger levels both from person to person and even from meal to meal.
If any of the above information is important to you, I understand! We are all different and have various goals and needs. If you’d like, you are welcome to calculate the information needed based on the ingredients you use when making one of my recipes.

4 Ingredient Pita Bread
Ingredients
Pita Bread
- 1 cup Greek yogurt
- 2 cups gluten free flour (I use Bob's Red Mill 1:1 Gluten Free Flour)
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 2 tsp salt
- avocado oil, to fry
Herby Butter Topping (optional)
- 1-2 tbsp butter, melted
- 1 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
Instructions
- Combine Greek yogurt, gluten free flour, baking powder and salt in a large bowl (using a larger bowl than you think you need helps contain the mess!).
- Mix everything together using your hands. It will be very piece-y and crumbly to start. Don't panic!
- Spend time, still using your hands, pressing the mixture into larger clumps and eventually, one large dough ball. This could take up to 10 minutes, but if it takes longer and is still falling apart, add 1 tbsp of water and continue to work the dough together.
- Knead the dough inside the large bowl for 2-3 minutes, then form it into a large dough ball. Note that you will not need additional flour here.
- Cut the dough into 8 equal pieces and roll each into a ball.
- You can use a tortilla press or a rolling pin, but either way, place each dough ball between two pieces of parchment paper and flatten no more than a ¼ cm thick. Note that you don't have to be too specific with the thickness and can play around with this! If you flatten it more, it will be a thin bread and if you leave it thicker it could puff up a little! Totally up to you.
- In a pan to the stove over medium heat, add enough oil to slightly cover the bottom of the pan.
- Once the oil is warm, add one pita at a time and cook each side for about 3 minutes or until golden marks form on each side.
- If you'd like, melt some butter and mix with fresh chopped parsley then brush onto each pita.
Halfed the recipe for just myself and these are amazing! Definitely trust the process when the dough is coming together! 10/10
Thrilled to hear! Thanks, Rachel! 🙂
