What Is Two Ingredient Dough?

Two ingredient dough is a simple combination of self-rising flour and Greek yogurt. I first heard about it from a woman who was going to weight watchers and learned about two ingredient bagels.

I had to try making them and my family loved them. I kept on making the no yeast dough and trying it for different recipes. To my surprise, they all turned out great!

Two Ingredient Dough Recipe Tips and FAQ

1) Can this dough be made ahead of time?

If you don’t want to use the dough right away, wrap it in plastic wrap that has been sprayed with cooking spray and store it in the fridge until ready to use.

2) Can I make self-rising flour instead of buying it? Yes, for one cup of self-rising flour, whisk together one cup of all-purpose flour, 1 1/2 teaspoons of baking powder and 1/4 teaspoon of salt.

3) What brand of plain Greek yogurt should I use? Use whatever kind is available at your local grocery store. I’ve made two ingredient dough with Fage, Oikos, and the store brand and haven’t noticed a difference.

4) Do you have to use plain, fat-free, Greek yogurt? No, you can use fat-free, full fat, 2% or 5%. For the sake of these two ingredient dough recipes, I used the fat-free kind.

5) What should I do if my dough is too sticky? If your dough is too sticky, knead in a little more flour at a time until it is workable.

6) Can two ingredient dough be made without a stand mixer? Yes! Stir the self-rising flour and Greek yogurt together until combined. Turn it out onto a floured surface and knead until smooth.

7) I don’t have a dough hook for my mixer. How can I make two ingredient dough? Use a mixer to combine the self-rising flour and Greek yogurt. Turn it out onto a floured surface and knead until smooth.
