# What You'll Need:

→ Greek Yogurt Dough

01 - 1½ cups all-purpose flour
02 - 2 teaspoons baking powder
03 - ½ teaspoon salt
04 - 1 cup plain Greek yogurt (nonfat or 2%)

→ Toppings

05 - 8 large eggs
06 - ½ cup low-fat milk
07 - 1 cup shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese

09 - ½ cup turkey pepperoni slices
10 - ½ teaspoon dried oregano
11 - ½ teaspoon garlic powder
12 - ¼ teaspoon black pepper

# Directions:

01 - Preheat oven to 375°F. Lightly grease a 9x13-inch sheet pan or casserole dish with cooking spray or butter.
02 - In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt. Add Greek yogurt and mix with a spoon until a shaggy dough forms. Knead briefly until the dough becomes smooth and uniform.
03 - Transfer the dough to the prepared pan and press evenly to form a thin, even base covering the entire surface.
04 - In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, oregano, garlic powder, and black pepper until thoroughly combined and uniform in color.
05 - Pour the egg mixture evenly over the dough base, distributing it across the entire surface.
06 - Sprinkle mozzarella cheese and cheddar cheese uniformly over the eggs. Distribute turkey pepperoni slices evenly across the top.
07 - Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the eggs are completely set and the cheese is golden brown with visible bubbling around the edges.
08 - Remove from oven and allow to cool for 5 minutes. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired. Slice into individual portions and serve while warm.
