A quick and simple no-yeast pizza dough recipe using just four pantry staples, perfect for beginners and last-minute pizza cravings. This dough yields a crisp outside and chewy inside crust without any rising time.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups (250g) all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¾ cup (180g) plain Greek yogurt

Instructions

  1. Combine 2 cups (250g) all-purpose flour, 1 tablespoon baking powder, and ½ teaspoon salt in a mixing bowl and whisk together.
  2. Add ¾ cup (180g) plain Greek yogurt to the dry ingredients and mix with a spoon or spatula until the dough starts to come together and looks shaggy and sticky.
  3. Lightly flour a clean surface and knead the dough gently for 3-4 minutes until smooth and elastic. Add a little flour if too sticky, but avoid adding too much.
  4. Shape the dough into a ball and flatten it into a 10-12 inch (25-30 cm) circle or rectangle about ¼ inch (6 mm) thick using hands or a rolling pin.
  5. Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). If using a pizza stone, place it in the oven to heat.
  6. Transfer the dough on parchment paper to a baking sheet or pizza peel. Add your favorite sauce, cheese, and toppings.
  7. Bake the pizza for 12-15 minutes until the crust is golden and toppings are bubbly. Watch closely after 10 minutes to prevent burning.
  8. Let the pizza rest for 2 minutes before slicing to help set the crust.

Notes

Do not over-knead the dough to avoid toughness. Use Greek yogurt for best structure. Preheat oven and pizza stone properly for a crisp crust. Tent with foil if edges brown too fast. Dough can be refrigerated up to 24 hours or frozen for up to 2 months.
