20-Minute Flatbread

No preplanning required to fulfill your pizza craving in a flash. It's also a great way to use up leftover herbs or yogurt before they turn! Choose precooked toppings, as they'll be in the oven a very short time.

20 minutes
Ingredients
1 cup flour (plus extra for dusting)
1 1⁄2 teaspoons baking powder
1⁄4 teaspoon garlic powder
1⁄4 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
1⁄2 cup Greek yogurt or sour cream (approximately)
Suggested Toppings
Additional Ingredients
  Sauces: pesto, white pizza sauce, or olive oil with garlic and crushed pepper
  Veggies: sun-dried tomatoes, peppers, olives, mushrooms, roasted onion
  Meats: cooked/cured meats - bacon, sausage, pepperoni
  Cheeses: shredded or fresh mozzarella, goat cheese, feta
Instructions

In a medium bowl, combine flour, baking powder, garlic powder, salt, and parsley. The moisture content of the Greek yogurt/sour cream will dictate how much is needed — low-fat versions have more moisture. Add ¼ cup yogurt at a time, mixing until dough forms into a ball. Knead 1 minute.

Preheat oven to 450 F. Transfer dough to a floured surface (this can be done on a flat metal baking sheet without edges to skip a step). Roll out to approximately the size of your baking sheet. Lift and flip to ensure it doesn't stick. Bake 7 minutes on middle rack of oven, then remove to add toppings. Spread sauce to the edges and evenly place chosen toppings. Bake another 7 minutes, keeping a close eye for when the cheese is melted. Serves four as an appetizer or two for dinner.
