  2. In a bowl, mix the flour, baking powder and salt.

  3. Add in the Greek yogurt and mix until well combined, you may need to use your hands. Sprinkle flour over a clean counter or cutting board.

  4. Place the dough on the surface and knead until smooth.

  5. Flatten the dough ball and use a rolling pin to roll into either a round or rectangular shaped pizza crust. The thinner you roll it out, the crispier the crust will be. If you prefer a more pillowy and softer pizza crust, don’t roll out the dough too thin.

  7. Baking for 20 minutes until the crust is cooked through and the crust is crisp
