Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1 cup Greek yogurt Ensure it's full-fat for best flavor.
  • 1 cup self-rising flour Ensure it is halal-certified.
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine Greek yogurt, self-rising flour, salt, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning. Mix until a dough forms.
  3. On a lightly floured surface, knead the dough gently for 1-2 minutes until smooth.
  4. Roll or press the dough into your desired shape, about 1/4 inch thick.
  5. Place the shaped crust on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 10-12 minutes until the edges are golden and crispy.
  6. Add your favorite toppings and return to the oven for an additional 5-10 minutes until cooked through.
  7. Let it cool slightly, slice, and serve.

Notes

For a gluten-free option, swap self-rising flour for a gluten-free all-purpose blend. Store leftovers in an airtight container for 3 days or freeze the crust for up to 3 months.
