Yogurt Dough


Yogurt Dough

  • 1 Cup plain whole yogurt (at room temperature)
  • 1 Cup (1/2 pound) butter softened
  • 3 1/2 Cups freshly ground spelt or whole wheat flour
  • 2 tsp sea salt
Cream yogurt with butter. Blend in flour. Cover and leave in a warm place for 12-24 hours. Add salt. Roll out using white flour to prevent sticking.

For a prebaked pizza crust, prick well with a fork and bake in a preheated 300 degree oven for 30 minutes. For empanadas, fill and bake at 350 for 20-30 minutes or until lightly browned.


I use this dough a lot for home made pizza. It almost has a sour dough taste. I have also used it for my chicken pot pie recipe.

Eden is shown blowing off my rustic pot pie, "helping" it cool down faster.
