→ For Baking

# How to Make It:

01 - Preheat your oven to 220°C (425°F). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and lightly spray with olive oil.
02 - In a large bowl, mix Greek yogurt, oat flour, whey protein powder, baking powder, and salt until a soft dough forms.
03 - Transfer the dough to the prepared baking sheet. With damp hands, press into a 25 cm (10-inch) round pizza base about 1 cm thick.
04 - Bake the base for 10–12 minutes until lightly golden and set.
05 - Remove from the oven. Spread tomato sauce evenly over the base. Sprinkle with light mozzarella, then add bell pepper, spinach, and chicken (if using). Sprinkle with oregano.
06 - Return to the oven and bake for another 8–10 minutes, until cheese is melted and bubbly.
07 - Garnish with fresh basil leaves. Slice and serve hot.

# Additional Tips::

01 -
  • This pizza feels so indulgent, but is secretly loaded with protein and light on calories.
  • You get all the cozy satisfaction of takeout with zero heavy feeling afterward.
02 -
  • If the dough feels too wet to handle, dust your hands and the dough lightly with oat flour—don’t be tempted to add much more or your base will dry out.
  • Baking the crust alone first ensures it cooks through and stays crispy under all the toppings.
03 -
  • Use parchment paper under the crust or risk the dough sticking—trust me, I learned this the hard way.
  • Chill your yogurt before mixing for a thicker dough that shapes easily.
