Pitta Rolls

 2 Cups warm water (105-115 degrees)

2 1/2 Tbsp dry yeast

2/3 Cup sugar

2/3 Cup Oil

2 tsp salt (or less)

4 eggs

8 cups flour

Into Mixer, pour 2 cups of the warm water.  Sprinkle in yeast and sugar and salt.  Mix and let set until foaming.  Add oil and beaten eggs. Mix on speed two until mixed.  Add 5 cups of flour, one cup at a time, mixing after each on speed two.

Replace mixing tool on Kitchen Aid with dough hook.  Add remaining flour one cup at a time, mixing after each on speed 2, until dough clings to hook.  Then kneed two minutes longer until dough is smooth and elastic.

Put dough in oiled bowel, turn and cover with oil.  Cover w/towel.  Raise in warm place until dough has doubled in size (approx. 1 hour).  Don't kneed at this point.

Take 1/3 of the dough and roll into 14 inch circles on floured surface.  Brush w/melted butter. (This helps them hold their crescent shape and not raise into a formless ball.  Cut like pizza into 16 pieces or less.  Roll-up into crescents, wide side to small point.  Line cookie sheet.  Brush with butter.  Cover with towel and place in warm place.  Will double in size (1 hour). 


Bake 400 Degrees 8 to 9 min. (I like mine just browned).
