Gyro bread, widely recognized as pita bread, is a soft, round flatbread originating from Middle Eastern and Mediterranean cuisines. Traditionally crafted from simple ingredients like wheat flour, water, yeast, and salt, it boasts a chewy texture that pairs perfectly with savory fillings, such as spiced meats and fresh vegetables in gyro wraps. Gyro bread is often enriched with olive oil for added flavor and pliability. Nutritionally, it serves as a moderate source of carbohydrates and contains small amounts of protein and fiber, depending on the flour used. Whole wheat versions are a healthier option, offering greater fiber content. While it’s low in fat, calorie-conscious eaters should be mindful of portion sizes, especially when combined with rich gyro fillings. Its versatility and mild flavor make it a staple in numerous dishes across Mediterranean and Middle Eastern cuisines.
