These low calorie, high protein pitas are the answer to your quick flatbread needs.
Super soft and simple to make – no yeast required. Music to my ears. I love making these pitas in a pinch when I don’t want to wait around for dough to rise. There are only three common ingredients in this recipe that I always have them on hand.
Feel free to use gluten free flour in this recipe. Also, MAKE SURE YOU ROLL OUT THE ROUNDS AS THIN AS POSSIBLE; it is integral to get them cooked to perfection. I also tried air frying these and they worked out amazing!

Servings: 10
Prep Time: 5 minutes mins
Cook Time: 25 minutes mins
Total Time: 30 minutes mins
Ingredients
- 3 cups all purpose flour
- 3¾ tsp baking powder
- 3/4 tsp salt
- 1½ cups 0% or 2% Greek yogurt (or sour cream)
- Optional Dip: Lazy Tzatziki
Instructions
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder and salt. Stir in the yogurt with a wooden spoon and then use your hands to form TWO large dough balls.
Lightly flour a clean surface and slice each ball into 4 equal parts. IMPORTANT: Roll out each piece into a THIN circle or oval shape. You can use a round plate to outline the circle and then use a pizza cutter to cut away the edges. (This is only if you want a perfect circle shaped pita. Take the extra pieces you cut away and combine them together and form more pitas).
Lightly drizzle a cast iron pan with olive oil and heat on medium to medium high. Transfer one pita to the pan and cook for 2-3 minutes per side or until golden brown patches appear. Repeat with remaining dough. YOU CAN ALSO AIR FRY THESE PITAS: 400°F for 12-14 minutes – flipping halfway through.
Notes
You can use this same recipe to make pizza crust, bagels, etc.
You can use gluten free all purpose flour too. I haven’t tried almond flour but it might work with the addition of some eggs.

I am fussy about pitas. These were DELISH! I was very skeptical. I grew more so when the dough wasn’t cooperative. (Another spoon of yogurt did the trick!) I made mine on the stove top. I don’t know if I will have enough now for you stove top chicken gyro recipe!! lol AMAZING!! Heavenly!!!

Airfrying burnt my pita at 400 for 12-14 min w a flip. Then I reduced to 9 min and still too crispy. Do you mean “roast” setting on the air fryer?

This recipe is so easy. I was worried about the dough because it was on the shaggy side but the pita came out absolutely amazing. It tastes good all by itself but I used it to make a little mini pita pizza. This is going into my rotation for sure please make this!! Thank you Stella <3

This recipe is soooo good thank you. I did try this with arrowroot flour and with addition of two eggs it did perfectly, however it came out a tad thinner.

Great and easy ❤️ I tried the recipe but I run out of Greek yogurt or sour cream at the time but had cottage cheese so I blended until smooth like yogurt and used with a tablespoon of olive oil . The result was incredible good ! My family loved them and said they’re addictive . Thank you so much for sharing your recipes 🙏🏻
