Pita
Pita or pitta, is a family of yeast-leavened round flat breads baked from wheat flour, common in the Mediterranean, Middle East, and neighboring areas. A type of versatile flat bread that is soft and slightly chewy and often features a pocket inside, which is a result of baking the bread in a hot oven.

Pita vs Flatbread
Flatbread is a flat, thin, bread that is used as a staple food in many cultures. The key difference between pita and flatbread is that flatbreads are often unleavened whereas pita is slightly leavened. Therefore, yeast or another leavening agent is needed to make pita.
