Ingredients (Serves 1–2)

For the Pizza Base (Two-Ingredient Dough)

1 cup (120 g) self-raising flour
1 cup (120 g) fat-free Greek yogurt

For the Sauce

3 tbsp passata or canned crushed tomatoes
½ tsp garlic powder
½ tsp dried oregano or Italian seasoning
Salt and black pepper, to taste

Toppings (Slimming World–Friendly)

1 cup reduced-fat mozzarella or Healthy Extra cheese allowance
Mushrooms, sliced
Bell peppers, sliced
Red onion, thinly sliced
Cherry tomatoes
Lean ham, chicken, or turkey pepperoni
Fresh basil or oregano

Instructions

Step 1: Make the Dough

In a bowl, mix the self-raising flour and fat-free Greek yogurt until it forms a dough. Knead lightly on a floured surface for 2–3 minutes until smooth.

Tip: If the dough is sticky, add a little extra flour, but avoid adding too much to keep it soft.

Step 2: Shape the Pizza Base

Preheat your oven to 220°C (425°F). Line a baking tray with parchment paper.

Roll or press the dough into a thin pizza base (round or rectangular). For a crispier crust, keep it fairly thin.

Step 3: Pre-Bake the Base

Bake the plain base for 8–10 minutes until lightly firm but not fully browned. This step prevents a soggy pizza.

Step 4: Prepare the Sauce

In a small bowl, mix passata with garlic powder, oregano, salt, and pepper. Spread evenly over the pre-baked base.

Step 5: Add Toppings

Sprinkle over the cheese, then add your chosen vegetables and lean protein toppings. Avoid overloading to keep the pizza crisp and low syn.

Step 6: Bake

Return the pizza to the oven and bake for 10–12 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the edges are golden.

Step 7: Serve

Remove from the oven, garnish with fresh herbs if desired, slice, and enjoy immediately.

Tips for the Best Slimming World Pizza

Use thick Greek yogurt: Thin yogurt makes sticky dough.
Roll thin: Thinner bases crisp up better.
Pre-bake the base: Essential for texture.
Measure cheese carefully: Stick to Healthy Extra allowances.
Load up on veggies: Adds volume without extra syns.

Variations

BBQ Chicken Pizza: Swap passata for BBQ sauce (syns apply) and add cooked chicken.
Veggie Supreme: Mushrooms, peppers, onions, spinach, and sweetcorn.
Pepperoni Style: Use turkey pepperoni or lean ham strips.
Garlic Flatbread: Skip sauce and cheese, brush with garlic-infused spray oil.
Mini Pizzas: Divide dough into smaller portions for portion control.

Air Fryer Method (Optional)

Preheat air fryer to 200°C (390°F)
Cook base for 4–5 minutes
Add toppings and cook another 4–6 minutes until golden

Perfect for single servings.

Storage & Reheating

Best eaten fresh, but leftovers can be stored in the fridge for up to 2 days.
Reheat: Oven or air fryer for best texture. Avoid microwaving.

Why This Recipe Works

The two-ingredient dough provides a high-protein, low-fat base that satisfies bread cravings while staying Slimming World–friendly.
