Pizza with Yogurt Dough and Quick Instant Yeast

The Pizza with Greek or plain yogurt dough and instant yeast is a quick solution for Saturday night dinner dedicated to pizza. I tried it for the first time and I liked it. Compared to long-rising pizza, it is a bit different in dough but remains soft and moist. The yogurt gives it a delicate taste.

This pizza is recommended, however, for working women who do not have the time required to make the classic long-rising pizza.
