This dough is easy to make, tastes great, and is low in points on the Weight Watchers Freestyle program. The dough is the same dough I used to make 2 Ingredient Weight Watchers Bagels.

⭐Why This Recipe Works
How do you make ww pizza dough with just two ingredients? It is easy when one of the ingredients is Fage Fat-Free Total 0% Greek Yogurt and the other is self-rising flour. No self-rising flour? No problem! You can find my recipe for self-rising flour in this post for 2 Ingredient Weight Watchers Bagels. This homemade pizza dough is super easy to make with items you already have at home.
🥣Ingredient Notes
- self-rising flour - flour made with baking soda already added.
- Fage Total 0% fat free Greek Yogurt - must use plain Greek yogurt, not regular yogurt.
📋Step by Step Instructions
STEP 1: Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
STEP 2: Combine ½ cup of self-rising flour and ½ cup of Fage Total 0% Greek Yogurt in a large mixing bowl until a dough starts to form. The dough may be a bit crumbly at this point.
STEP 3: Divide the dough into two equal portions. You can use one ball of dough and freeze the other for later. Drop the dough you will be using onto a floured surface and knead until it comes together.
STEP 4: Roll out the dough on a floured work surface with a rolling pin until it is very thin. You can cook this in a small pizza pan or on a cookie sheet. Gently transfer the dough to a greased pizza pan and place it in a 450-degree oven for 5 minutes or until the dough starts to brown a bit. Keep an eye on the dough when it's in the oven to make sure it doesn't get too dark.
STEP 5: Remove dough from oven and add ⅓ cup pizza sauce or marinara sauce.
STEP 6: Top with 2 ounces of Trader Joe's Lite Shredded Mozzarella Cheese. If you can't find this cheese, use what you can find, but adjust the points accordingly.
STEP 7: Sprinkle some Italian seasoning or oregano on the pizza.
STEP 8: Return to the 450-degree oven and bake for 10 minutes until the top is darker and the cheese has melted.
This whole weight watcher pizza - including the toppings - is 6 Freestyle points which is just crazy to me!
I often add lots of veggies, like peppers and onions, but I was sharing this one with my kids, so I kept it pretty basic.
So next time you have a pizza craving, give in and enjoy this two-ingredient pizza crust with no guilt!
👩🏻🍳Expert Tips
Tip 1: This recipe for weight watchers pizza dough will make two servings of 3-point pizza dough - enough to make 2 small pizzas.
Tip 2: The marinara sauce I used was the Kirkland (Costco) brand and was 1 point for ⅓ cup.
Tip 3: Trader Joe's Lite Shredded Mozzarella cheese is the best low-fat cheese I have found that tastes good and actually melts. Best of all, 2 ounces is only 2 points!
🤷🏻♀️Recipe FAQs
You can add lots of veggies that won't up the points at all. Olives, mushrooms, spinach, green and red peppers, fresh basil, and onions. Go crazy with your favorite pizza toppings.
This dough has much fewer carbs and much more protein than traditional dough. Since it is low in points, it is perfect if you follow the Weight Watchers plan.
You can freeze the dough once it has been rolled out. Simply roll out the dough, place it in a large zip bag, and store it flat. When you wish to use it, remove it from the freezer and let it thaw on the counter for 15 minutes.

There was absolutely no way to roll out the dough for me. It was completely sticky no matter how much flour I put on the board and rolling pin. I was surprised to see nobody commented on this 🙁 so disappointed this was a great idea in theory!
Suzanne says
I'm so glad I came across this! I've been craving pizza all day and keep trying to talk myself out of it because of all the points.
Aynsley says
I don’t have access to self rising flour here but I made some using a recipe.
However my crust seems very droopy and not crispy at all.
What am I doing wrong?
Vicky says
Have you tried baking the crust first for a few minutes to crisp it up before adding toppings? That could help.
Regina Noonan says
Im really enjoying the recipe but wondering if you have tips for dealing with the stickiness of the dough? I don’t want to add too much flour but have such a hard time rolling out the dough. Does anyone else experience this or have tips? Thanks!!!
Pdudley says
if the WW point finder shows 12 points in 1 cup flour alone I am confused as to how baking this removes all those points plus the extra flour needed to roll out the dough. I was told that the total points in a recipe is divided by the servings. I read some say they eat the whole pizza. Depending on the toppings used this could become pointy.
Eileen says
Looks yummy. How important is it to use the Fage brand yogurt? Will any plain non-fat yogurt do?
Sheryl says
Hi,
I love this recipe and use a lot. Do you know if it could be froze? Make the dough, roll it out, place it between parchment paper, wrap and freeze. Have you ever tried to make it ahead of time and freeze it.
Thanks
Roo says
This was really good! Hit the spot for my pizza craving. For those who are having trouble rolling it out due to the sticky dough here is a tip. Place the dough on parchment paper & place another piece of parchment on top. Roll out the dough using rolling pin over the top parchment paper. Once thin enough remove top layer of parchment and transfer crust with bottom layer of paper to baking pan. Much easier and works great! Thanks for a delicious way to get my pizza fix without guilt!
Britt Wright says
Thank you so much for the tip! I was having a heck of a time with the sticky dough!
Amber says
Just want to start off by saying.... wow. This pizza was unbelievable. Made it with my mom
tonight (we split the dough and each had our own pizza) and we loved it. Couldn’t even taste the yogurt. Will absolutely be making this again! Thank you thank you thank you!!
Tiffany says
Have you ever tried freezing this dough? I work a crazy schedule and thought that if I can "batch cook" it, I could freeze it either in shell form or even just in a ball. Wondered if it held up well in the freezer.
