- 3 ½ tsps active dry yeast
- 6 cups all-purpose flour

Preparation steps
1.
For the pita:
2.
In a small bowl combine yeast and warm water, set aside for about 10 mins until it bubbles.
3.
Fit a dough blade into the mixer and combine the flour and salt. Gradually add the milk and the yeast mixture while continuing to turn the flour. Continue mixing until the dough forms a ball, about a minute, the dough will be a bit sticky. Turn it onto a floured surface and knead for about 3 minutes. Shape into a smooth, pretty ball. Place in a very large, lightly oiled bowl. Turn to coat all side of dough and let rise in a warm area for 1 hour.
4.
When dough has at least doubled in size, punch it down and tear off handfuls of dough. Roll out pieces to about 3? in diameter on a very lightly floured surface. Rolling is also a great way to rid the dough of air bubbles. Place rolled out sections on lightly oiled cookie sheets, cover with plastic wrap and a clean dish towel and let rise for 30 mins
5.
Preheat oven to 500° F/260° C. Bake the pitas, you may need to do it in batches. After the first minute in the oven, the dough will begin to rise. Brush the top with olive oil and bake for another 5 mins.
6.
To assemble the sandwiches:
7.
Slice the pitas in half. Spread about 1-2 tablespoons of hummus on each of bottom slices. Top hummus with sprouts and arugula. Sprinkle salt and drizzle olive oil over all. Lastly, top with other half of pita and enjoy!
