Here are the simplest and quickest wrap bread making recipes for the two most common types of wrap bread, i.e. tortilla and pita bread, so you can enjoy them fresh with any filling of your choice.

For making simple flour wrap bread at home, you just need a few simple ingredients:

• All-purpose flour: 2 cups
• Salt: ½ Teaspoon
• Vegetable oil: 2 tablespoon
• Baking powder: ½ teaspoon
• Lukewarm water: ¾ cup

Steps to Follow:

• Add flour, salt, and baking powder and mix in a bowl.
• Add the vegetable oil and lukewarm water to the mixture, and then mix until a soft dough forms.
• Knead the dough properly for a few minutes until it becomes smooth and then divide it into small balls.
• Cover the dough balls with a tea towel for about 15 minutes and let them settle.
• Roll each one out into thin, flat circles to form tortilla wraps, and they are ready to cook.
• Heat a skillet over medium heat and cook each side of the tortilla for about 30-40 seconds until it puffs up.
• Once cooked, keep the wraps covered in a tea towel to keep them soft and fluffy.

Ingredients you’ll need to make pita bread at home:

• Bread flour: 2 cups
• Salt: 1 teaspoon
• Sugar: 1 teaspoon
• Active dry yeast: 1 teaspoon
• Lukewarm water: 1 cup

Steps to Follow:

• Mix the flour and salt in a bowl.
• Create a mixture of the yeast, sugar, and lukewarm water and let it settle for ten minutes.
• Add this yeast mixture to the flour and knead to form a soft, elastic dough.
• Cover the dough and let it rise for about 1 hour or until it has doubled in size.
• Preheat your oven to 475°F/245°C.
• Divide the dough into small balls and roll them out into thin, flat circles.
• Bake on the preheated stone or sheet for 2-3 minutes or until they puff up.
• You can heat the pita wraps on an iron skillet after baking to bring more flavour to it.

The following bread making tips can help you make fluffier wrap bread:

• Proper kneading is a key to create a soft texture.
• Allow the dough to rest before rolling it out to make the bread easier to shape.
• When cooking the bread, use a hot skillet or oven to ensure it puffs up quickly. If your oven or skillet is not properly preheated, it can make the wrap bread hard.
• Keep your bread soft by storing it in an airtight container wrapped in a tea towel or plastic wrap.
