I scour the internet all the time for inspiration for recipes and I recently came across a method of making dough that is incredibly simple and only uses 2 ingredients! This method is ALL over the internet so I can’t even credit anyone for its invention but it is fantastic and I am excited to think of lots of ways to use it. For my first attempt using the dough I decided to make some easy to hold, easy to make and so easy to eat pizza parcels. The Boy loves pizza but always moans that he can’t hold it easily as the cheese and sauce get all over his hands so these “pizza parcels” are like mini calzones and encase the pizza filling inside yummy dough. They are perfect for an on the go snack as they are also delicious cold and you can add any filling in them at all. They are also egg free so great for those of you who are allergic. Let me know what you think!
NB: A word on quantities of ingredients. All the recipes I have found online for the 2 ingredient dough are in “Cups” measurements. The basic recipe is for every Cup of Self Raising Flour use 1/2 Cup of Yoghurt. For this recipe I have put the measurements in Cups and Grams in case people use Cups (I personally use Cups a lot). I have converted the Cups measurement to Grams using an internet conversion site. Remember that as Cups are a volume based measurement 1 Cup of one ingredient won’t weigh the same as 1 Cup of another ingredient.
1 Cup or 250g Greek or Natural Yoghurt (I used full fat yoghurt as this was for my kids)
2 Cups or 250g Self raising flour
100ml tomato puree or pizza sauce (try my Microwave tomato and vegetable pasta sauce)
50g grated cheese
Mix the yoghurt and flour together so a dough is formed. Knead it slightly but don’t over-knead it otherwise it won’t cook properly.
Roll the dough onto a floured surface into a rectangle.
Cut the rectangle into Smaller rectangles then spread the pizza sauce and cheese on top.
Fold one end of the dough over the other end and seal well with your fingers to create a sealed parcel. Place on a greased baking sheet or a non stick baking liner.
Bake in the oven on 180 degrees C for 15-18 minutes until the dough has turned golden.
Let cool a bit and then enjoy! Beware the filling will be hot so take care. Yum!
Thank you for another great recipe.
Dough is a bit hard to handle as it is wet from the yoghurt but I put down a lot of flour on the work surface and this helped when kneading.
Looks great. Going to attempt to make them but can they be frozen?
