Ingredients

  • 1 cup self-rising flour
  • 1 cup non-fat plain Greek yogurt
  • Optional: Two pinches of salt

Instructions

  1. Step 1: In a large bowl, combine the self-rising flour and Greek yogurt until a rough dough forms. If desired, add two pinches of salt for extra flavor.
  2. Step 2: Turn the dough onto a floured surface. Knead it for about two minutes by pressing and folding: knead in one direction four times, fold the dough over itself, turn it a quarter turn, then repeat the kneading four times.

Tips & Variations

  • For a softer dough, use full-fat Greek yogurt instead of non-fat.
  • Add herbs or spices to the flour for extra flavor variations.
  • If dough feels too sticky, sprinkle a little more flour while kneading.

Storage

Use the dough immediately for best results. If needed, wrap it tightly in plastic wrap and store in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. Bring back to room temperature before using. Baked goods made from this dough are best eaten fresh but can be stored in an airtight container for 1-2 days and gently reheated.

FAQs

Can I use regular flour instead of self-rising flour?

Regular flour lacks the baking powder and salt present in self-rising flour, so the dough may not rise properly. You can make your own self-rising flour by adding 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder and 1/4 teaspoon salt to 1 cup of all-purpose flour.

What can I make with this 2 ingredient dough?

This dough works well for quick pizzas, flatbreads, dumplings, or even simple rolls. Just shape, cook or bake accordingly, and get creative with toppings or fillings.

  • 1 cup self-rising flour
  • 1 cup non-fat plain Greek yogurt
  • Two pinches of salt (optional)

Instructions

  1. Combine Ingredients: In a large bowl, mix the self-rising flour and non-fat plain Greek yogurt together. If desired, add two pinches of salt to enhance the dough’s flavor and mix thoroughly until a cohesive dough begins to form.
  2. Knead the Dough: Once the dough pulls into a ball, transfer it to a floured surface. Knead the dough for about two minutes, applying a technique where you knead in one direction four times, fold the dough over itself, turn it a quarter-turn, and then knead four more times to develop the gluten and achieve a smooth consistency.

  • Adjust flour quantity slightly if the dough is too sticky or too dry.
  • This dough can be used immediately for making flatbreads, pizza crusts, or other quick breads.
  • Optional salt enhances flavor but can be omitted for a blander dough suitable for sweet toppings.
