Sesame pita...or not?

Hello,

I'm proofing sourdough pita as we speak.

2 cups flour 50:50 wholewheat to bread flour

2 tbsp oil

4oz starter

~200ml water

If I knead sesame seeds in prior to letting it rest and baking, will the seeds mess around with the puff? As in, will I still be able to split the pita in half easily and stuff? I know that I have tried kneading in zaatar and garlic powder prior to this, just thought maybe the seeds would be a bit large...

If my memory serves me correctly in the final shaping I would have sesame seeds not flour on the board when I rolled them out. They came out fabulously ! Thanks for the trip down memory lane.

Happy Baking!
