Greek Pita Bread Recipe
Greek Pita Bread Recipe
Make your own Greek Pita Bread following my easy recipe. This fluffy soft Greek flatbread is perfect for serving with souvlaki, gyros or dips. The Greek pita bread resembles quite a lot the Arabic pitta bread, but unlike it the Greek version of pita is leavened. And one thing is really unique to the Greek pita bread: it is one of the easiest bread you can make at home.
Ingredients:
160 ml milk, at room temperature
80 ml water, at room temperature
1 teaspoon(s) granulated sugar
2 tablespoon(s) olive oil
2 teaspoon(s) yeast
320 g hard flour
1 tablespoon(s) olive oil, for frying
salt
pepper
To serve:
olive oil
1 teaspoon(s) oregano
Greek tzatziki sauce

The Ultimate Greek American Gyros
Follow my easy recipe to create the most delicious “Restaurant Quality” gyro pitas at home. This gyro meat can and should be doubled and even tripled because it freezes well. As a matter of fact, your family will beg you for this Greek-American classic once they try it.
Print this recipe here:
Serves 6:
1 medium onion, quartered
1-pound ground lamb
1-pound ground beef
5 garlic cloves
2 teaspoons salt
1 heaping teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon finely chopped rosemary
1 heaping teaspoon cumin powder
½ teaspoon ground black pepper
Pinch of crushed red pepper flakes
Equipment: 9 x 5-inch loaf pan
For the Sandwiches:
Pita bread
Onion slices
Tomato slices
Tzatziki Sauce
Lettuce
Crumbled feta cheese
INSTRUCTIONS
Preheat oven to 325 °F, 160 °C.
Place the garlic cloves in a food processor and pulse until very finely chopped.
Add onion and puree until smooth.
Add ground beef with all of the spices. Pulse until the mixture becomes like a paste. Scrape down the sides of the bowl in between pulses.
Place the mixture in a loaf pan. Compact it as much as possible.
Bake for 45 minutes to 1 hour or until the internal temperature registers 165 °F.
Allow the pan to cool at room temperature completely. Refrigerate at least 2 hours before removing from the pan.
Remove from pan onto a cutting board. Using a sharp serrated knife, slice it thinly. Pour all of the pan juices over the slices along with any of the fat that has gelatinized. It adds so much flavor when heating it up for the sandwiches.
At this point, the gyro slices can be placed in a freezer-safe bag and frozen for future use.
To make the Gyro sandwiches, place a cast iron pan over medium heat and cook the gyro slices until they are browned on both sides.
Warm the pita bread slightly. Place some chopped lettuce, onion and tomato slices over the pita, the warm gyro slices and tzatziki sauce with crumbled feta. Serve immediately. Enjoy!
NOTES
Freezer Instructions: Place the cooked gyro slices in a freezer bag or an airtight (freezer-safe) container and store in the freezer for up to 3 months. When ready to use thaw and pan fry until golden.
