- 1 1/4 cups warm water
- 1 tablespoon agave syrup

- Mix until well combined.
- Add in the oil and mix by hand or in a food processor for 6 to 8 minutes.
- Cover the bowl and let the dough rise for 90 minutes in a warm, dry place.
- Dough should double in size.
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F and if possible, use a baking stone.
- Punch the dough down and divide it into 8 pieces.
- Roll them into balls, then cover and let rest for 20 minutes to let the dough relax.
- Dust a clean work surface with flour, then roll each ball out to 1/8-inch thick and approximately 6 inches in diameter.
- Cook on baking stone until puffed and starting to brown about 6 minutes each side.
- Spritz the oven with water, during baking, to create nice crisp pitas.
