Yes, pita is yeast raised. Do Anglican churches have a canon against using yeast bread? I know that the RC's do, but the Orthodox churches require it. It all seems to go back to the St. John model of the Eucharist. I tried matzo once and it really made lots of crumbs. Pita and tortilla hardly leave any. Okay here is a pita bread recipe:

PITA BREAD
Printer version of this recipe

2 cups flour
2 1/4 tsp. quick rise yeast
1/2 tsp. salt
1 1/4 Cups hot water
1 to 1 1/2 cups flour

Combine first 5 ingredients in a large bowl.
Beat well about 1 minute.
Then mix in the remaining flour, using just enough to make a soft, not sticky dough.
Turn out on floured board and continue to knead for 5 minutes.
Divide into 10 balls.
Roll out each one to about 1/4 inch thick and 6 inches in diameter.

Place on very lightly greased cookie sheet sprinkled with cornmeal.
Let rise in warm place for 25 to 35 minutes.

Bake at 450 for 4 min. and then turn over for 4 more minutes or until lightly brown.
Wrap immediately in a dish towel for 3 or 4 minutes.
Cool and enjoy!!!
