Pita Bread

 2 TBS yeast

2 1/2 Cups warm water

4 TBS sugar

2 tsp salt

5-6 Cups flour

Mix yeast, warm water and sugar.  Let sit for 15 minutes.  Add salt and flour.  Knead for 2 minutes.  Let the dough rest for two minutes.  Make into balls - rolling them in the palm of your hand.  Make them the size of a racquetball.  This will make about 15 balls.  Place them in sequence of making them 1 through 15 on a greased surface.  Let them rest for 5 minutes.  Start with the first ball and roll it into a circle with a rolling pin until it is 1/4 inch thick.  Then repeat that process with the second ball through 15.  Let them rest for 5 minutes.  Place them on a cookie sheet with no sides to restrict accurate baking or on the back of a cookie sheet.  Bake at 500 degrees for 5 minutes or until golden brown.  Cut them in half while they are still warm.
