Ingredients
  

  • 120 g Self Rising Flour (1 cup)
  • 120 g Greek Yogurt (½ cup)
  • Toppings of choice

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 200°C/400°F. Place a baking tray inside as the oven heats to help crisp the bottom of your pizza base.
  • In a mixing bowl, combine the flour and Greek yogurt. Stir with a fork until mixed, then knead the dough with your hands until it forms a soft, non-sticky ball. If the dough is too sticky, add a little flour until the desired consistency is achieved.
  • Place the dough on a sheet of parchment paper and roll it out into a pizza shape, aiming for a thickness of about 3-5mm. Use a rolling pin, wine bottle, or any smooth object to roll out the dough.
  • Carefully remove the preheated baking tray from the oven and slide the dough on the parchment paper onto the tray.
  • Spread a layer of pizza sauce on the base, then add cheese and your favorite protein-packed toppings.
  • Bake the pizza for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the crust is golden and crispy. If there are many toppings, you may need to bake it a little longer.
  • Once cooked, remove from the oven, slice, and enjoy your high-protein, healthier pizza!

Notes

  • For a crispier crust: Preheat your baking tray in the oven before adding the dough for a crispier bottom.
  • Dough consistency: If the dough feels too sticky, add a little extra flour until it’s smooth and easy to work with.
  • Customizable toppings: Feel free to add your favorite protein-packed toppings like chicken, turkey bacon, or even a fried egg to increase the protein content.
  • Make ahead: You can prepare the dough in advance and store it in the fridge for up to 24 hours before using.
  • Gluten-free option: Use gluten-free self-rising flour or my oat flour crust as a gluten-free alternative.
