Instructions

Step 1/4

Prepare Meat Mixture

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). In a bowl, mix together ground beef or lamb, chopped onion, chopped garlic, chopped parsley, ground cumin, paprika, ground cinnamon, salt, and pepper until well combined.

Step 2/4

Stuff Pitas

Cut the pita bread in half to form two semi-circles. Open each half to create pockets and stuff each one with the meat mixture, pressing it down gently to ensure the pockets are evenly filled.

Step 3/4

Bake

Lightly coat both sides of each stuffed pita with cooking spray or brush with olive oil. Place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the meat is cooked through and the pitas are golden and crispy.

Step 4/4

Serve

Remove the stuffed pitas from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes. Optionally, serve with tahini sauce, hummus, or yogurt sauce for dipping.
