About Pitta bread

Pitta bread is a soft, round flatbread originating from Middle Eastern and Mediterranean cuisines. Traditionally made from basic ingredients like wheat flour, water, yeast, and salt, it is baked at high temperatures, creating an airy pocket inside. Known for its versatility, pitta bread is often used as a wrap, scoop, or vessel for fillings like hummus, falafel, or grilled meats. Nutritionally, it provides a source of carbohydrates and is low in fat, making it a smart choice for energy. Whole wheat versions offer added fiber and nutrients, supporting digestion and heart health. However, some commercial varieties may contain added sugars or preservatives, making label checking important. Its moderate calorie content and simplicity make it a healthier option compared to richer breads, when consumed in balance with a well-rounded diet.
