Easy No Yeast Pizza Dough (2 Ingredients):

This quick and easy no yeast pizza dough has only 2 ingredients and requires NO rising time! It tastes like regular pizza crust without the hassle and you can choose your favorite toppings every time. It is also called Weight Watchers pizza dough or Skinny pizza dough because a ⅛ slice of the pizza crust has only 74 calories.

I love pizza! But as I get older, my metabolism is slowing down, making me avoid certain foods. Although this no yeast pizza dough recipe is not new, I only came to know about it recently. It’s one of those recipes that is pure genius!

If you face the same problem that I do, or just want to save some calories while enjoying pizza, this recipe is for you too.

A ⅛ slice of regular pizza crust has about 130 calories while this 2-ingredient pizza dough has only 74 calories per slice. It is a healthier option for sure, as is low carb cauliflower pizza dough!

Although this recipe is not keto, it is low carb because it only has 12 g carbs per slice. But that is not all! If you are also on a Weight Watchers diet, the whole dough recipe only has 12 smart points (not counting the toppings), as you can check by using this weight watchers freestyle points calculator.

On top of that, a ⅛ slice has 5 g of protein or 40 g for the entire crust recipe.

Well, how is that possible? Because this pizza crust just calls for 1 cup of nonfat plain Greek yogurt (a 0% fat protein powerhouse) and 1 cup of self-rising flour.

It is a 1:1 low-calorie pizza dough. Neat, right?

Weight Watchers Pizza Dough Ingredients and Substitutions

This homemade no yeast pizza dough makes a 10-inch pizza crust that has just 2 ingredients:

Nonfat plain Greek yogurt

1 cup of self-rising flour

Nonfat plain Greek yogurt

Although this is one of the secret ingredients in our pizza, you can replace it with full-fat plain Greek yogurt (the pizza crust will be fluffier and chewier, and the dough will be easier to knead), a 2% or reduced fat Greek yogurt (a bit crunchier dough), or even sour cream. But do not use another type of yogurt that is not Greek because they are thinner than Greek yogurt, making the dough wet and sticky.

For a dairy-free option, use a dairy-free or soy-based yogurt.

Self-rising flour

But the magical ingredient is this recipe is… Self-Rising Flour.

If you don’t have this in your pantry, you can still make this pizza dough with regular unbleached all-purpose flour or whole wheat flour. However, you will need to add 1 ½ teaspoons of baking powder and ¼ teaspoon of salt.

If you are celiac, be sure to use a gluten-free flour.

How to make easy no yeast pizza dough with 2 ingredients

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (about 200 degrees C)

In a large mixing bowl, stir in 1 cup of nonfat Greek yogurt with 1 cup of self-rising flour together until mostly homogeneous. SEE PIC.1

Transfer dough to a lightly floured surface. Using your hands, knead dough just until it comes together, and then shape it into a ball, about 2-4 minutes. SEE PIC.2

You can also divide the dough into 2 smaller pizza rounds to make individual/personal pizzas. Using a rolling pin, roll dough out, forming a 10-inch pizza crust or 2 (5-inch) crusts (SEE PIC.3). Transfer onto one or 2 pizza pans (preferably lined with parchment paper).

Spread your favorite tomato aka Pomodoro sauce on top (about ⅓ cup) and then your desired amount of cheese and other toppings.

Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until crust has browned on the edges and top, and the cheese has melted.

Cook’s notes for pizza dough without yeast

For a tasty dough, add a good pinch of garlic powder or dried herbs to the dough while mixing the 2 ingredients.

For a crunchier crust, pre-bake it for 5-10 minutes before topping it, and then bake again for the remaining time.

You can use this same pizza dough to make a no yeast bread or rolls… then bake and brush with a mixture of melted butter, minced garlic, and herbs.

How to Store Yeast-Free Pizza Dough

If you are not baking this pizza dough right away, wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for up to 2 days. Let it come to room temperature before rolling out.

Or, you can freeze our no yeast pizza dough, but not as a big ball– otherwise it would take too long to thaw. To freeze, roll it out and then pack it in a sealed freezer bag or plastic wrap. When you are ready to use it, thaw at room temperature for 10 minutes, add toppings, and bake.
