2-Ingredient Pizza Recipe | Healthy Recipes

Celebrate National Pizza Day with a healthier but delicious alternative!

Whether you are looking to celebrate National Pizza Day or just craving pizza even though it’s against all your New Year health goals, this recipe will help curb any guilt you might have in getting an extra slice and it will be delicious too! This healthy pizza recipe lies in a simple crust with only 2 ingredients–Greek yogurt and self-rising flour. It has half the amount of calories a normal pizza crust (520 calories TOTAL for the whole recipe) would have and no added sugar other than the sugar naturally existing in the flour. 

Add whatever toppings you’d like or make it healthy by sticking to low fat mozzarella and vegetable toppings. Make it your own and enjoy!

 

 

Ingredients

 

  • 1 cup of self-rising flour, plus more for kneading
  • 1 cup plain Greek non-fat yogurt
  • cooking spray
  • low fat mozzarella cheese
  • tomato sauce (optional if you want a white pizza)
  • toppings of your choice 

 

INSTRUCTIONS

 

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F (260 degrees C). Mix flour and Greek yogurt together in a bowl, then transfer to a floured surface and knead. Add more flour as needed to prevent the dough from being too sticky, approximately 10 minutes.

Step 2

Spray a 12 inch metal baking pan or pizza stone and spread dough/roll out flat. Top with your desired toppings.

Step 3

Bake for 20-30 minutes or until the crust is browned and cooked through.
