Ingredients
  

For the Dough
  • 1 cup Low-fat Greek Yogurt Can substitute with blended low-fat cottage cheese for extra protein.

  • 1 tbsp Italian Seasoning Customize with your favorite herbs like oregano or basil.
  • 1 tsp Garlic Powder Using fresh minced garlic can intensify the taste.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine all-purpose flour, baking powder, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, and salt. Gradually fold in the low-fat Greek yogurt until a shaggy dough forms.
  3. Divide the kneaded dough into 8 equal portions and roll each into a 6-inch oval shape.
  4. Spoon about 15g of pizza sauce on one half of each oval, leaving a ½-inch border. Top with 20g of low-fat cheese.
  5. Fold the dough over the filling to create a half-moon shape and seal the edges with a fork.
  6. Place on the baking tray and bake for 18-20 minutes, or until golden brown.
  7. Allow to cool on the tray for about 5 minutes before serving.
