Self-Rising Flour
Already contains flour, baking powder, and salt — so it
rises on its own
Greek Yogurt
Adds moisture, tenderness, and a slight tang — plus the acidity activates the baking powder for a fluffy texture
Together, they form a soft, pliable dough that bakes up golden, tender, and lightly chewy — no special skills required.
Gluten-free? Use gluten-free self-rising flour blend + thick Greek-style yogurt.
How to Make 2-Ingredient Dough (The Base Recipe)
Ingredients
Self-rising flour
2 cups
Spoon & level — don’t pack
Plain Greek yogurt (full-fat)
1 cup
Thick and creamy — not runny
No self-rising flour? Mix:
→ 2 cups all-purpose flour
→ 3 tsp baking powder
→ ½ tsp salt
No Greek yogurt? Use sour cream or plain regular yogurt (thicker = better).
Step-by-Step Instructions
Mix
In a bowl, combine flour and yogurt. Stir with a spoon until shaggy.
Knead (Just a Little!)
Turn onto a floured surface. Gently knead 1–2 minutes until smooth and no longer sticky.
Rest (Optional)
Cover and let rest 5–10 minutes — makes rolling easier.
Shape & Bake
Roll, twist, or press into your desired form. Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 12–18 minutes, until golden.
No over-kneading needed — this isn’t traditional bread.
