Ingredients
  

Dough
  • 1 cup self-rising flour plus extra for dusting
  • 1 cup plain Greek yogurt full-fat or 2%
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil optional
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder optional
  • 1 teaspoon dried Italian herbs optional
Toppings
  • 0.5 cup pizza sauce
  • 1.5 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 0.25 cup sliced black olives
  • 0.25 cup caramelized onions
  • 2 tablespoons fresh basil chopped
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil for drizzling
  • red pepper flakes to taste, optional

Equipment

  • Mixing bowl
  • Rolling pin
  • Baking sheet or pizza pan
  • Parchment paper

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease a pizza pan.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine self-rising flour and Greek yogurt. Stir with a wooden spoon until a shaggy dough forms.
  3. Transfer dough to a lightly floured surface and knead gently for 2-3 minutes until smooth. If too sticky, add more flour 1 tablespoon at a time.
  4. Roll the dough into desired pizza shape, about 1/4 to 1/2 inch thick. Dust rolling pin and surface with flour to prevent sticking.
  5. Transfer rolled dough to prepared baking sheet. Press any tears back together with fingers.
  6. Spread pizza sauce evenly over dough, leaving 1/2 inch border around edges for crust.
  7. Top with shredded mozzarella, black olives, caramelized onions, and any additional desired toppings.
  8. Bake for 12-15 minutes until cheese is golden and bubbly, and crust edges are browned.
  9. Remove from oven and let cool 2-3 minutes. Garnish with fresh basil, drizzle with olive oil, and add red pepper flakes if desired.
  10. Slice and serve immediately while hot. Enjoy your quick, healthy homemade pizza!

Notes

For extra crispy crust, prebake the dough for 5 minutes before adding toppings. Dough can be refrigerated up to 24 hours or frozen for up to 3 months. Use room temperature Greek yogurt for easier mixing. If you don't have self-rising flour, make your own by adding 1.5 tsp baking powder and 1/4 tsp salt per cup of all-purpose flour.
