As a doctor, I’m constantly being asked whether you can eat bread without gaining weight.\u00a0 The evidence suggests that you can maintain a healthy weight by limiting your energy intake, whether your diet’s low-carb, low-fat, or has a balanced limitation of calories.\u00a0 There’s no evidence that limiting calories from carbohydrates (like bread) is better than limiting it in fat or anywhere else.\u00a0 I bake and eat lots of bread, and I don’t gain weight, even though I spend lots of time testing bread recipes for our books and website.\u00a0 There’s some evidence that whole grain breads, like this 100% Whole Wheat Pita with Honey, are a better choice than refined white breads.<\/p>\n

So I’ve been following Michelle Obama’s initiative to tackle childhood obesity: LetsMove.gov.\u00a0 I keep hoping she’ll answer my e-mail about getting kids to bake the whole-grain breads for their families.\u00a0 I may have to keep waiting on that one.\u00a0 About this recipe…<\/p>\n

The dough for this pita is from Healthy Bread in Five Minutes a Day<\/strong><\/a>, basically a variation on our Whole Grain Master<\/strong><\/a>.\u00a0 Just omit the white flour, and increase the whole wheat to 7 cups (2 pounds\/910 grams).\u00a0 Decrease the water to 3 1\/4 cups, and add 1\/2 cup honey with the liquid ingredients.\u00a0 As I show in the video, use a rolling pin<\/strong><\/a> and a dough scraper<\/strong><\/a> to get the dough thin (1\/8-inch thick).<\/p>\n

Because of the honey in this dough, it needs gentle heat– play with the grill controls to preheat a half-inch thick stone <\/strong><\/a>to 350 degrees F (that will take about a half hour).\u00a0 I light all available burners under the stone.\u00a0 If you go hotter, the honey in the dough will cause scorching.\u00a0 Rolling to about 1\/8-inch thick, the pita took about 12 minutes to bake, seven on the first side, then flipping to the second.\u00a0 I use a gas grill pretty similar to the Weber Spirit E-210<\/strong><\/a> (my model isn’t made anymore).\u00a0 It’s tough to re-create these results with charcoal, but I know that some of you have been experimenting with it.<\/p>\n
