Protein Pizza (Baby-Led Weaning Friendly)
This no-yeast Protein Pizza uses Greek yogurt for a protein-packed crust that babies, toddlers, and adults will love! Ready in just 30 minutes!
Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup whole wheat flour
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 3 teaspoons baking powder
- 2 cups plain Greek yogurt
- 2 tablespoons olive oil, add a little more if dough feels too dry
- (Optional) 1/2 teaspoon salt, add if not using as a baby-led weaning recipe
Toppings
- 2-3 tablespoons pizza sauce, per pizza
- 1/2 - 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese, per pizza
- (Optional) toppings of choice
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, garlic powder, and baking powder. If making this for adults and older children only, you can add the ½ teaspoon of salt at this stage.
- Add the Greek yogurt and olive oil to the dry ingredients. Mix until everything starts to come together to form a dough. If the mixture seems too dry, add a little more olive oil, one teaspoon at a time.
- Using your hands, shape the dough into a ball. Lightly dust your work surface with flour and place the dough on a piece of parchment paper on a cutting board.
- Divide the dough into four equal pieces. Using a rolling pin or your hands, roll or spread out each pizza dough into a mini pizza shape. I like to curl up the edges slightly to form a proper pizza crust, but you don't have to.
- Place the pizza bases on your prepared baking sheets (two pizzas per sheet). Top each pizza with sauce, cheese, and your chosen toppings (see suggestions below).
- Bake in the oven for approximately 20 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbly and starting to brown. Let the pizza cool before serving to babies or little ones.
