About the Recipe

The most important thing about our high protein pizza recipe is that it actually tastes good! It has a simple protein pizza crust that doesn’t require any rising, and this flavorful base can be covered in all of your favorite pizza toppings.

Ingredients

  • 2 cup all-purpose flour

  • 3 teaspoons baking powder

  • 2 teaspoon Italian seasoning

  • 0.5 teaspoon salt

  • 2 cup plain Greek yogurt*

  • 1 cup pizza sauce

  • 2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

  • 1 cup turkey pepperoni or other toppings of your choice

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.

  2. Protein Pizza Crust: Mix flour, baking powder, Italian seasoning and salt in a bowl. Stir Greek yogurt into flour mixture and mix well, to form a dough. Place a piece of parchment paper on the counter and dust lightly with flour. Using well-floured hands, scoop dough onto parchment and roll into a 14-inch circle, dusting the top with flour to keep it from sticking. You will have enough dough for 2 pizzas.

  3. Pre-bake crust: Transfer the dough to a pizza stone or large baking sheet and pre-bake both doughs for 8 minutes.

  4. Add toppings and bake: Remove from oven then add sauce and toppings. Bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until cheese is melted and crust is golden.


Notes

  • Yield: one 14-inch pizza. Serving size is 1/4 of the pizza.

  • Greek Yogurt: Cottage cheese may be substituted for greek yogurt, just make sure to blend it first.

  • Serve with a green salad for a complete meal.
