🍕 Fluffy No-Yeast Pizza Recipe (With Sour Cream & Yogurt Dough)


Quick, soft, and homemade — no eggs, no yeast, just simple magic.


If you’ve ever craved a soft, puffy homemade pizza but didn’t have yeast on hand, this recipe will become your new go-to. The dough is made with yogurt, sour cream, and baking soda, creating a natural reaction that makes the crust rise beautifully — almost like a traditional yeast dough, but ready in minutes.

🌾 Ingredients (1 large 11–12 inch pizza)


For the dough

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour (260–280 g)

  • ½ tsp baking soda

  • ½ tsp salt

  • 1 tsp sugar

  • 2 tbsp sour cream

  • ½ cup (120 ml) yogurt

  • 2 tbsp vegetable oil

  • 1 tsp lemon juice or white vinegar

    (This activates the baking soda and makes the dough extra fluffy.)


For the sauce

  • 2 tbsp tomato paste

  • 1 tbsp water

  • ½ tsp sugar

  • Salt, black pepper, and Italian herbs to taste

  • (Optional) 1 grated garlic clove


Toppings


Use anything you like — mozzarella, cheddar, mushrooms, pepperoni, veggies, chicken, olives, etc.

👩‍🍳 How to Make It


1. Prepare the dough

  1. In a bowl, mix flour, baking soda, salt, and sugar.

  2. In a separate bowl, whisk together yogurt, sour cream, oil, and lemon juice.

  3. Combine wet and dry ingredients and knead until you get a soft, slightly sticky dough.

  4. Let it rest for 10 minutes — this helps the dough relax and become easier to roll.


2. Shape the crust


Lightly dust your surface with flour and roll the dough into a circle (or rectangle) about 5–10 mm thick, depending on whether you want a thin or fluffy crust.

Transfer to a baking tray lined with parchment paper.

🍅 3. Add the sauce & toppings


Spread the tomato sauce, add cheese, and finish with your favorite toppings.

🔥 4. Bake

  • Temperature: 350°F (175°C)

  • Time: 18–22 minutes

  • Shelf: middle rack


Bake until the edges turn golden and the cheese melts beautifully.

For crispier edges, you can increase to 375–400°F during the last 3–4 minutes.

✨ Tips for the Best Result

  • If the dough feels sticky, dust with flour while shaping — but don’t mix extra flour into the dough itself.

  • A lightly sticky dough = a soft, airy crust.

  • Brush the edges with a little oil before baking for extra color and flavor.

  • Add fresh herbs or garlic oil after baking for a restaurant-style finish.

🍕 Final Thoughts

This no-yeast sour cream & yogurt pizza dough is perfect for busy days when you want something homemade but quick. It’s soft, fluffy, flavorful — and ready in under 30 minutes from start to finish.
