Ingredients

For the Dough:

1 1/4 cup self-rising flour

3/4 teaspoon fine kosher salt

1 1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt

For the White Topping:

2/3 cup ricotta cheese

1 cup chopped baby spinach leaves

12 cloves garlic, minced

1/4 teaspoon fine kosher salt

12 teaspoons lemon zest

1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Olive oil, optional

Crushed red pepper flakes, optional


Instructions

Dough:

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a pizza pan or baking sheet with parchment paper and lightly oil.

  2. In a large bowl, combine flour and salt. Add Greek yogurt and mix until crumbly. Use your hands to form a smooth dough ball.

  3. Turn onto a floured surface and knead for 2 minutes until elastic.

  4. Roll dough into a 12–14 inch circle. Transfer to prepared pan and bake for 8 minutes.

White Topping:

  1. Mix ricotta, spinach, garlic, salt, and lemon zest in a bowl.

  2. Spread evenly over pre-baked crust, leaving a border.

  3. Top with mozzarella, Parmesan, black pepper, and red pepper flakes (if using). Optional: drizzle lightly with olive oil.

  4. Bake for 6–8 minutes until cheese melts and top is golden.

Notes

  • Flour substitute: If you don’t have self-rising flour, combine 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour with 2 teaspoons baking powder.
  • Storage: Refrigerate cooled pizza in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
  • Reheating: Best done on a skillet over medium-low heat for a crisp crust.
