Feeling pretty great about this healthy Protein Pizza!

The most important thing about our high protein pizza recipe is that it actually tastes good! I’m not about to share healthy food that tastes gross. It has a simple protein pizza crust that doesn’t require any rising, and this flavorful base can be covered in all of your favorite pizza toppings.

How to make Protein Pizza:

Protein Pizza Dough: Mix flour, baking powder, Italian seasoning and salt in a bowl. Stir Greek yogurt into flour mixture then mix well, to form a dough. Place a piece of parchment paper on the counter then dust lightly with flour. Using well-floured hands, scoop dough onto parchment, then roll into a 14-inch circle, dusting the top with flour to keep it from sticking.

Pre-Bake: Transfer the dough to a pizza stone or large baking sheet and pre-bake dough for 8 minutes at 400ºF.
