Here’s a great little recipe that’s both quick and easy. It’s ideal hot but cold will work also. I like to pair it with smocked salmon and avacado for a protein rich breakfast with plenty of healthy polyunsaturated and monounsaturated fats.
Adding these pitta breads also give you an additional 20g of protein and just over 50g of carbohydrate. If you’re training fairly close after breakfast, (around an hour), or have just trained, I’d maybe think about swapping out the wholewheat flour for plain white flour.
The key ingredient is skyr yogurt which is actually technically a cheese! It’s high in protein and low in fat. I use it in loads of recipes but it’s also great simply on its own.
Ingredients:
- 100g skyr
- 70g wholewheat flour
- 1/2 a tsp of baking powder
Method
- Add dry ingredients and mix in half the the skyr before adding other half
- Depending on preference either role out one large pitta or split the mixture into two equal size balls
- Sprinkle some flour on the side before placing ball in the centre
- Roll out thinly using a rolling pin or bottle
- Place in a heated frying pan in a medium heat, each side for around 2 minutes
