How to make Protein Pizza:
Protein Pizza Dough: Mix flour, baking powder, Italian seasoning and salt in a bowl. Stir Greek yogurt into flour mixture then mix well, to form a dough. Place a piece of parchment paper on the counter then dust lightly with flour. Using well-floured hands, scoop dough onto parchment, then roll into a 14-inch circle, dusting the top with flour to keep it from sticking.
Pre-Bake: Transfer the dough to a pizza stone or large baking sheet and pre-bake dough for 8 minutes at 400ºF.
Add Toppings: Remove crust from oven then add sauce and toppings. Bake homemade protein pizza for an additional 10 minutes, or until cheese is melted and crust is golden.
