Quick and easy low carb, keto friendly pita for any kind of filling (savory or sweet) gluten free, sugar free, nut free, and also diabetic friendly!
Keto/low carb
This is an easy to make pita for one person made in just 5 minutes and can be filled with whatever your appetite craves.
I have tried stuffing with minced meat and cheese (as in the video), with homemade gyros (wrapped souvlaki), with burgers and tzatziki, with pieces of roasted chicken, sweet version with cinnamon and sweetener or with strawberries and whipping cream!
For the sweet version, omit the salt and add some sweetener.

1 Mix all the ingredients well except the oil, with a hand whisk.
2 If the mixture is very thick and seems difficult to spread in the pan (depending on the size of the eggs) add 1-2 Tbsp of water.
3 Heat a medium-sized non-stick pan with olive oil (or butter or coconut oil) and quickly spread the mixture all over the surface using a spoon.
4 Fry the pita for about 2-3 minutes on medium heat, until golden brown. Turn the pita on the other side and bake for another 2-3 minutes.
The pita is ready for filling!
