🏫 The last word
This recipe is my own take on the weight watchers pizza dough recipe. While following a nutritional fitness plan, I try to add more nutrition to a meal. For this one in particular, I boosted the fiber and vitamins by adding wheat germ. So while it is the original 2 ingredient dough recipe, I did make it 3 ingredients by modifying it for nutritional purposes.
While this does not taste like, nor feel like a yeasty pizza dough, it does taste delicious. The crust gets nice and crispy in the personal pizza pans and I like that considering there is no fat in the recipe!
