- Mixing Spoon
Ingredients
- 2 1/2 cups flour
- 1 1/4 cups vanilla yogurt
- 1 cup marinara sauce
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
- 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 10-15 fresh basil leaves dried basil will work too
- chopped vegetables or meat (optional)
- extra flour for kneeding
- olive oil to grease pan
Instructions
- Pre-heat oven to 425°F
- Oil pizza pan with a thin layer of olive oil and put in oven to warm while oven is pre-heating.
- In a mixing bowl, add flour and baking powder and mix with spoon till combined.
- Make a valley in the center of your flour and add yogurt in the middle. Mix until dough forms.
- Dust cutting board with extra flour and begin kneeding the dough. If the dough is too sticky, add more flour.
- When dough is ready, take pizza pan out of oven and put dough on top. Careful with this step as pan will be very hot.
- Roll out the dough to form an even circle on the pan.
- Put pan in the oven for 5 minutes to slightly cook the pizza crust. This helps the crust from being too doughy.
- After 5 minutes, remove pan from oven and spread on the sauce to evenly coat the pizza, leaving an empty ring around the edges of crust.
- Top with cheese, vegetables, basil and meat of choice.
- Cook for 10-15 minutes until crust is cooked. For a softer crust, cook 5-10 minutes and for a crispier crust, cook for 10-15.
- When done, remove from oven and let cool a few minutes before eating. Enjoy!
