What can I use instead of yeast in pizza dough

So why no yeast? This recipe is super easy to make with minimal ingredients as it cuts out the rising step traditionally done when making pizza dough with a yeast starter. The raising agent in self raising flour mixed with thick set Greek yogurt which creates the yummiest light and fluffy pizza dough in minutes!

How to make pizza dough without yeast

  • Add the sieved self-raising flour & Greek yogurt to a large mixing bowl. (add 1 x tablespoon of salt – optional for extra flavour)

  • Flour a clean surface/worktop, pour out the dough, kneed with your hands pulling the dough back on itself each time. The dough should eventually form a smooth texture, then shape into a large ball and cut into two.

How long does pizza dough last in the fridge

Pizza dough can last up to a week in the fridge. The best way to store the dough ball is by placing it in a bowl and covering with cling film / saran wrap. You can also wrap the individual dough balls too.

How long to cook pizza dough

For this no yeast pizza dough preheat your oven to 200 Celcius / 400 Fahrenheit / Gas mark 6.  Put your oven tray or pizza stone in the oven to pre heat. Once you have made the pizza dough carefully take the stone/tray out of the oven and place the rolled-out dough on top. Add your pizza sauce and toppings, then bake for 12 – 14 minutes.

The cooking time will be a lot faster if baked in a traditional wood fire Italian pizza oven or in a barbeque.

Pizza topping ideas

There are so many pizza toppings! The beauty of making homemade pizza is that you get to choose your own ingredients. Here is some toppings inspiration to add to your freshly made dough.

Pepperoni

The most popular pizza topping is pepperoni. Pepperoni is an Italian-American type of salami made with a cured beef and pork. The pepperoni is then seasoned with paprika and chilli.

Margarita

A simplistic but authentically Italian pizza. Made with only 4 ingredients; crushed Italian San Marzano tomatoes, mozzarella cheese, parmesan cheese & topped with fresh basil. 

Barbeque base

Authentic pizza recipes use a tomato sauce, however a more modern take on the pizza has seen the innovation of BBQ sauce bases. Usually paired with chicken or a “Meat Feast” selection of ingredients such as; cooked sausage meat, bacon, ham, mushrooms and onions.

Hawaiian pizza

Pineapple and sliced ham paired with cheese and a tomato sauce 😊 It’s a love hate pizza topping combination, some people love it and some don’t, mainly due to the sweet pineapple flavour.

What is the secret to good pizza dough?

  • Set aside extra flour for kneading and flouring your surface/pizza tray when ready to bake
  • Use a fork to poke the base slightly to prevent rising in the centre. Ensure not to poke the fork all the way through the pizza dough base.
  • Add 1 x tablespoon of salt & garlic powder to the self-raising flour, this is optional to add extra flavour to dough
  • To refrigerate the dough, place in a bowl and then cover clingfilm wrap to store. When ready to use the dough, flour a clean surface and roll the dough into a pizza disk shape ready for toppings.
  • Make sure you add your pizza stone/Oven tray into the oven to preheat to ensure you have a super crispy base + speed up cooking times
  • Don’t put too much sauce and toppings on the pizza dough, as you risk the pizza base becoming soggy and not crispy
