Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups whole wheat flour
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 0.25 ounce instant yeast
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup low-fat mozzarella cheese
- 1 cup fat-free Greek yogurt
- 1 cup warm water
- 1 for greasing olive oil cooking spray
- 0.25 cup fresh basil leaves
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a large mixing bowl, combine whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, instant yeast, and salt. Mix well.
Gradually stir in warm water and Greek yogurt until a soft dough forms.
Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for 5 to 7 minutes, until it is smooth and elastic.
Form the dough into a rectangular shape and place it on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Using your fingers, press the dough out gently until it is about half an inch thick throughout.
Sprinkle the top with low-fat mozzarella cheese, garlic powder, and fresh basil leaves.
Lightly spray the top with olive oil cooking spray to help the cheese melt evenly.
Cover the dough lightly with plastic wrap and let it rest in a warm place for about 15 minutes to allow slight rising.
Bake the cheesy bread in the preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes or until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown.
Allow the bread to cool slightly before slicing into pieces. Serve warm and enjoy your homemade low-fat cheesy bread.
