This Easy No Yeast Pizza Dough recipe is a quick and simple way to make a delicious homemade pizza crust without the need for yeast or rising time. Using only Greek yogurt and self-rising flour, this dough comes together quickly and bakes into a golden, chewy crust perfect for your favorite toppings.

Ingredients

Scale

For the Dough

  • 1 cup nonfat plain Greek yogurt (0% fat)
  • 1 cup self-rising flour

For Topping

  • About 1/3 cup tomato sauce
  • Desired amount of cheese (e.g., mozzarella)
  • Optional additional toppings (e.g., pepperoni, vegetables)

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (about 200°C) to ensure it reaches the ideal temperature for baking the pizza crust evenly and achieving a nice golden color.
  2. Mix Dough: In a large mixing bowl, combine 1 cup of nonfat plain Greek yogurt with 1 cup of self-rising flour. Stir until the mixture becomes mostly homogeneous, forming the base of your pizza dough.
  3. Knead Dough: Transfer the dough onto a lightly floured surface. Using your hands, knead the dough gently for about 2 to 4 minutes until it comes together into a smooth ball. Avoid over-kneading to keep the crust tender.
  4. Shape Dough: For one large pizza, roll or pat the dough into a 10-inch round. Alternatively, divide the dough into two smaller pieces and roll each into 5-inch rounds for personal-sized pizzas. Place the shaped dough onto pizza pans lined with parchment paper.
  5. Add Toppings: Spread about 1/3 cup of your favorite tomato sauce evenly over the crust. Then sprinkle with your desired amount of cheese and add any additional toppings you like.
  6. Bake Pizza: Bake the pizza(s) in the preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the crust edges turn golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Notes

  • If self-rising flour is unavailable, you can make your own by combining 1 cup all-purpose flour with 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
  • Plain Greek yogurt can be substituted with an equal amount of regular plain yogurt, though the crust might be slightly less firm.
  • For a crispier crust, pre-bake the rolled-out dough for 5 minutes before adding toppings.
  • This dough recipe does not require yeast or rising time, making it perfect for quick meal preparation.
