Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 cup Greek yogurt (plain, unsweetened)
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 0.5 cups Pizza sauce
- 1 cup Shredded mozzarella cheese
- 12 pieces Pepperoni slices (optional)
- 0.5 teaspoons Dried oregano
- 1 cup Other optional toppings (e.g., sliced vegetables, cooked chicken, etc.)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet or pizza stone with parchment paper and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Stir until evenly mixed.
Add the Greek yogurt to the dry ingredients and mix with a spoon until a dough starts to form. If the dough is sticky, sprinkle in a little more flour, about 1 tablespoon at a time.
Transfer the dough onto a floured surface and knead it for 2-3 minutes, until it becomes smooth and elastic.
Roll out the dough with a rolling pin into your desired pizza shape (circular or rectangular) and place it on the prepared baking sheet or pizza stone.
Brush the rolled-out dough with olive oil to help it crisp up in the oven.
Spread the pizza sauce evenly across the dough, leaving about 1/2 inch of crust around the edges.
Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese over the sauce, then arrange your pepperoni slices or other toppings of your choice on top.
Sprinkle dried oregano over the pizza for added flavor.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbly and melted.
Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for 2-3 minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy your Extra Easy Pizza!
