I absolutely love when I stumble upon recipe hacks or tips that make preparing a dish much simpler. So when I came across this easy 2-ingredient dough recipe, I was so excited and dazzled by the endless possibilities of things to make!

I learned about this dough from a friend who was part of the Weight Watchers program. Ever since then, I’ve used this dough for all sorts of things, like to make bagel, pizza crust, and even flatbread.

what is WW 2-ingredient dough?

This 2-ingredient dough is part of the Weight Watchers diet, and is known as the “magic dough” because of how versatile it is. It requires only (yes, that’s right) 2 ingredients, that is equal parts self-rising flour and Greek yogurt, and comes together quickly!

Because the dough requires no yeast, there’s no need for any resting time! The self-rising flour (which has baking powder in it) is the ingredient that helps give the dough a bit of rise.

This simple recipe is a great alternative to store-bought dough. If you’d like, you can also freeze some of the leftover dough for the future!

Ingredients You’ll Need

(For full ingredient measurements, please proceed to the recipe card below.)

  • Self-rising flour: All-purpose flour that’s pre-mixed with baking powder and a bit of salt.
  • Greek yogurt: It’s important to use Greek yoghurt (not Greek-style yoghurt) instead of plain regular yoghurt as it has a thicker texture, which helps in holding the dough together.
  • Olive oil
  • Jalapeno
  • Sharp cheddar cheese
  • Parmesan
  • Italian seasoning (optional)
  • Hot honey (optional)

  1. Preheat oven to 400 F and grate the cheese.
  2. To a bowl, add the Greek yogurt and self-rising flour. Mix with a spoon and eventually with a clean hand. Lightly knead it or keep doing a folding motion until you can form a ball (see notes).
  3. Transfer to a lined baking tray and drizzle a bit of olive oil on top. Flatten it to your desired shape and thickness.
  4. Add another drizzle of olive oil, sliced jalapeños, the shredded cheese, and optional, a dash of Italian seasoning on top (see notes). Bake for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown.
  5. Serve while hot and optional but highly recommended, drizzle hot honey on top. Enjoy!

notes for 2-ingredient dough cheesy jalapeno bread

Knead the dough into a ball

The dough ball doesn’t have to be smooth or kneaded perfectly. Just as long as you’re able to form it into a ball.

Why is my 2-ingredient dough so sticky?

Some Greek yoghurts are more watery than others. The extra moisture can result in the dough becoming stickier.

If the dough is too sticky, add a bit more flour. If it’s too dry and not forming a dough, add a bit more Greek yogurt. Add 1 tbsp at a time for both.

How to make a crispy crust?

For a crispy crust, I like to add more parmesan to the edges.

Can you freeze WW 2-ingredient dough?

Yes, you can freeze the dough! Simply place it in a zip bag or saran wrap it, then store in the freezer. Whenever you’d like to use the dough, thaw it out until its at room temperature before adding on your toppings.

However, it will take longer to thaw if you store the dough in a ball shape. So you can roll it out into your desired thickness before storing.

The best pizza in the city where pizza was invente The best pizza in the city where pizza was invented @farahjeats 🍕 
📍Pizzeria Da Michele, Naples, Italy 
📍 Pizzeria D’angeli, Naples, Italy
We got pizza from one of the oldest pizzerias in Naples, Italy and it didn’t disappoint. We got there right when it opened and there was already a line. We ended up getting the pizzas to-go and ate it on the hood of our rental car. Each box of pizza was only €5 and we got every item on the menu (it was only a 4 item menu anyway 😂). While waiting in line, the smell of the wood fired pizza was sooo good we were so hungry by the time we got our orders. We got pizzas from across the street too just to compare. There was no line at that restaurant and you could easily get a table. It was a little bit more expensive per pizza but still affordable. Both pizzas were delicious! Still dreaming about it till this day 🥲
Fun fact: Eat, Pray, Love was filmed at Pizzeria Da Michele!

It definitely hits the spot! Feel free to add protein of your choice to this dish or just add a fried egg on top!

This is such an easy and addictive snack. I always have to make a lot if I’m sharing because I tend to finish the first batch all by myself 😂

Ramadan recipe #21 Rendang Ayam (Dry Chicken Cocon Ramadan recipe #21 Rendang Ayam (Dry Chicken Coconut Curry) @farahjeats 
Save and share this flavorful and delicious recipe!
Ending my Ramadan series with one of the best dishes. This is a dish that’s traditionally served during Eid/Raya in Malaysia, Indonesia and Singapore. Every family usually has their own version of this. It’s usually served with nasi impit (cubed rice), lemang or pulut kuning (turmeric glutinous rice) but also just as good with white rice. 
Making this is a truly a labor of love especially when you make big batches. It can take hours! Families will cook this the night before Eid so the dish will be ready in time for the big celebration. The whole house will usually smell like rendang when this is made and honestly, one of the best smells that reminds me of such great and fond memories. 
This month just flew by— thanks so much for tuning in. I’ll be back with my usual twice a week recipes starting next week 💛
