These Mini Lunchbox Pizzas are quick and easy to make with a simple self-raising flour and Greek yogurt dough. Topped with tomato paste, mozzarella, and pepperoni, they bake to golden perfection in just 12–14 minutes, making them an ideal snack or lunch option for kids and adults alike.

Ingredients

Scale

Dough

  • 2 cups (300 g) self-raising flour
  • 1 cup (250 g) full-fat plain Greek yogurt

Toppings

  • ⅓ cup (90 g) tomato paste (concentrated puree)
  • 1 cup (125 g) freshly shredded mozzarella cheese
  • ½ cup (80 g) pepperoni slices

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F) or 180°C (350°F) if using a fan-forced oven. Line a baking tray with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
  2. Make the dough: In a large bowl, combine the self-raising flour and Greek yogurt. Stir with a spoon until the mixture forms large flakes, then knead with your hands for about 1–2 minutes until a soft, elastic dough forms.
  3. Shape the pizzas: Lightly flour a surface and roll out the dough to about 1 cm (½ inch) thickness. Use a large mug or cookie cutter to cut out round shapes for your mini pizzas.
  4. Add toppings: Place the dough rounds on the prepared baking tray. Spread a thin layer of tomato paste evenly over each dough round, then sprinkle with shredded mozzarella. Top each pizza with slices of pepperoni.
  5. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 12–14 minutes, or until the dough turns golden brown and the cheese has melted and started to bubble.
  6. Cool and serve: Allow the mini pizzas to cool slightly on the baking tray before serving, making them easier to handle and enjoy.

Notes

  • Using full-fat Greek yogurt helps achieve a soft and tender dough.
  • If you prefer a vegetarian option, omit the pepperoni or substitute with vegetables like sliced olives or bell peppers.
  • These mini pizzas are perfect for lunchboxes, snacks, or party platters.
  • You can store any leftovers in an airtight container and reheat in the oven for best results.
  • Be careful not to over-knead the dough to keep it light and fluffy.
