Pita Bread

2 tsp. dry yeast
1 cup warm water
3 cups flour
1 tsp. salt

Dissolve the yeast in 1 cup warm water.
Sift together the flour and salt and mix in yeast and water.
Work the mixture into a dough and knead for several minutes.
Cover the dough with a damp cloth and let rise in a warm place for 3 hours.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Divide the dough into 6 equal portions and roll into balls.
With either your hand or a rolling pin, pat and press each ball of dough into a 5−inch circle about 1/2−inch thick.
Place on an ungreased baking sheet and bake for 10 minutes, or until the pita are light golden brown.
