Ingredients
Scale
Basic Dough
- 1 cup non-fat plain Greek yogurt
- 1 cup self-rising flour (Gold Medal Brand recommended)
Optional (For Pretzels)
- 1 egg
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) before starting the dough preparation to ensure it’s hot and ready when you’re ready to bake.
- Mix Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, combine 1 cup of non-fat plain Greek yogurt with 1 cup of self-rising flour. Stir and blend thoroughly until a dough forms.
- Knead Dough: Transfer the dough onto a floured work surface. Knead gently and shape it into a ball. Divide the dough into 4 equal pieces.
- Store Extras: If you’re not using all the dough at once, save the remaining pieces for later use to create bagels, donuts, pretzels, turnovers, or calzones.
- Prepare for Baking: When ready to bake, shape your dough into the desired form such as pizza crust or pretzel bites. If making pretzels, beat 1 egg and brush it on the dough pieces for a golden crust.
- Bake Pretzel Bites or Bagels: Bake at 350°F for 18 to 22 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.
- Bake Pizza: Bake pizza dough at 400°F for 12 to 15 minutes until the crust is crisp and toppings are cooked.
Notes
- Use self-rising flour for best results; if not available, mix all-purpose flour with baking powder and salt.
- The optional egg is recommended only if making pretzels for a shiny, golden finish.
- Non-fat Greek yogurt keeps the dough light and adds protein.
- Adjust baking times depending on the thickness and size of your dough shapes.
- Store unused dough wrapped tightly in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
- To customize, add herbs or spices directly into the dough before baking.
