Multigrain Pita Bread with Sun Dried Tomato

The third time we made our own pita bread, this time I ground some sunflower and pumpkin seeds and added into the dough with the white sesame seeds, also added some sun-dried tomatoes, the pita bread didn't puff up too much like last time, but the flavor and the texture were both excellent. We really loved the flavor from the nuts and sun-dried tomatoes.

Directions

Add yeast and honey to warm water in a medium-size bowl; let stand until foamy, about 10 minutes.

Combine the flour, olive oil, salt, garlic powder, sunflower and pumpkin seeds and white sesame seeds, sundried tomatoes in a large mixing bowl.

Pour yeast mixture into center and stir until dough can be gathered into a ball.

Knead dough floured board until smooth.

Place dough in a large, lighty oiled bowl.

Cover with a damp towel and place in a dry, draft-free place until dough had doubled, 1 to 1½ hours.

Punch down dough; place on lightly floured board.

Divide dough into 12 equal pieces.

Shape into circles and place on nonstick cookie sheets.

Allow to rest, covered with damp towel for 30 minutes.

On lightly floured board, roll out each piece of dough to a circle, about 6 inches in diameter.

Place on non-stick cookie sheets; loosely covered by kitchen towels, let stand for another 30 minutes.

Preheat oven to 500 F.

Just before you place the pan in the oven, flip each pita over on its other side.

Bake on bottom rack oven for 5 minutes. Once one cookie sheet, you can bake 2 to 3 pita breads at one time.

Remove pitas from cookie sheets and let cool on rack.

Store in airtight container in refrigerator.

To serve, reheat wrapped in aluminum foil at 350℉ (180℃) F for 10 minutes.
