23cm Pitta

You can use this flatbread as a wrap for gyros, skewers, sausages, grilled cheese, or vegan options accompanied with Greek spreads. You can also use it cut as a sider or in sandwiches as a club sandwich bread.

Alexakis 23cm Greek Pitta is the largest size in the Alexakis range of soft, pre-baked flatbreads from Greece. This "giant" pitta is primarily intended for professional use in restaurants, tavernas, and catering businesses, but is also available for those who want to create extra-large gyros or wraps at home.

Key features

• Size: With a 23cm diameter, it is Alexakis’ largest size, designed to handle generous fillings.
• Authentic Greek taste: It is a traditional, soft, and thick Greek-style pitta, made with wheat flour, yeast, and sunflower oil. It bakes up warm, soft, and lightly crusty.
• Made in Greece: Produced by the renowned Alexakis company, which has been baking pitta bread since 1956.
• Preparation: The pre-baked pitta can be heated in an oven, toaster, or grill for a few minutes until warm and fluffy.
• Availability: It can be purchased frozen, often in packs of 10, for freshness and a long shelf life.

Culinary uses

Due to its large size, the 23cm Alexakis pitta is a versatile option for creative dishes beyond standard gyros.

• Giant gyros wraps: Perfect for making substantial, fully loaded gyros or souvlaki wraps.
• Platter bread: Use it as a large flatbread for serving with dips like hummus or tzatziki.
• Base for flatbread pizza: Its size can serve as a base for a large personal pizza.
