Ingredients
-
1 ¼ cups self-rising flour, preferably whole-wheat (see Tip)
-
1 cup low-fat plain Greek yogurt
Directions
-
To make dough by hand: Place self-rising flour in a large bowl. Add yogurt and stir with a fork until a shaggy dough forms. Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface until smooth, about 8 minutes. Add a few tablespoons water if the dough seems dry or a few tablespoons flour if it is sticky.
-
Alternatively, to make dough in a stand mixer: Place self-rising flour in a stand mixer fitted with the dough hook. Ad yogurt and mix at low speed until a smooth dough forms, 3 to 4 minutes. Add a few tablespoons water if the dough seems dry or a few tablespoons flour if it is sticky.
-
Alternatively, to make dough in a food processor: Place self-rising flour in a food processor fitted with the steel blade. Add yogurt and pulse about 15 times until a smooth dough forms. Add a few tablespoons water if the dough seems dry or a few tablespoons flour if it is sticky.
Equipment
Stand mixer or food processor (optional)
Tip
To make whole-wheat self-rising flour, whisk 3/4 cup white whole-wheat flour, 1/2 cup all-purpose flour, 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a large bowl.

Nutrition information is calculated by a registered dietitian using an ingredient database but should be considered an estimate.
* Daily Values (DVs) are the recommended amounts of nutrients to consume each day. Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients. (For example, it’s recommended that people following a heart-healthy diet eat less sodium on a daily basis compared to those following a standard diet.)
