Combine 300g all-purpose flour, 15g whole wheat flour, 10g sugar, 5g salt, and 4g instant yeast in a bowl.

Add 190g warm water to the dry ingredients and mix until combined.

Knead the dough for just 1 minute.

Cover the dough and let it rest for 20 minutes.

Add 20g vegetable oil to the dough and turn it out onto a surface.

Knead the dough until soft for about 5 minutes.

Cover the dough and let it rest until doubled in size, about 60 minutes.

Dust the surface and the dough with flour.

Divide the dough into 6-7 even pieces and shape each piece into a ball.

Cover the balls and leave them for another 15 minutes.

Roll each ball out into a 15cm (6-inch) circle, about 3-4 mm (1/8 inch) thick.

Place the rolled dough on a dusted kitchen towel, making sure not to stack them.

Lightly cover the rolled dough and leave them to rest for 30-40 minutes.

Preheat the oven to 470F (240C) with a baking sheet inside.

Carefully place 3-4 pieces of dough on the preheated baking sheet.

Bake for 2.5-3.5 minutes or until puffed and lightly browned on top.

Cover the baked pitas with a kitchen towel and let them cool.
