Ingredients

For the Dough:

  • 1 cup plain nonfat Greek yogurt
  • 1 cup self-rising flour

For the Toppings:

  • 1 cup canned tomato sauce with Italian herbs
  • 1 cup shredded part-skim mozzarella
  • 20 slices turkey pepperoni
  • 4 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 tablespoons thinly sliced fresh basil
  • 4 pinches red pepper flakes (or to taste)

Instructions

Instructions:

  • Step 1: Prepare the Dough. In a mixing bowl, combine the plain nonfat Greek yogurt and self-rising flour. Stir until a dough begins to form. If the dough is too sticky, add a little more flour, one tablespoon at a time, until it reaches a workable consistency.
  • Step 2: Knead the Dough. Lightly flour your work surface and transfer the dough onto it. Knead the dough for about 5 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic.
  • Step 3: Roll Out the Dough. Using a rolling pin, roll the dough into your desired shape and thickness, aiming for about 1/4 inch thick for a perfect crust.
  • Step 4: Pre-Bake the Crust. Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C). Transfer the rolled-out dough onto a baking sheet or pizza stone. Bake the crust for about 5-7 minutes until it’s just beginning to set but not browned.
  • Step 5: Add the Toppings. Remove the pre-baked crust from the oven. Spread the canned tomato sauce evenly over the crust, leaving a small border around the edges. Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella, turkey pepperoni, grated Parmesan cheese, and fresh basil on top. Finish with red pepper flakes if you like a little heat.
  • Step 6: Bake Again. Return the pizza to the oven and bake for an additional 10-12 minutes or until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown.
  • Step 7: Serve and Enjoy. Once done, remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for a minute. Slice it up and serve it hot. Enjoy your delicious, homemade Weight Watchers Pizza!
