Bagel Dough
1 cup whole Greek yogurt
1 cup self rising flour
1/2 teaspoon salt (optional)
1 egg whisked (optional)
Everything spices (optional)
Directions
Mix dough by folding together with a spatula until combined.
Lightly flour a work surface and roll out dough into 12-inch logs / snake shape.
Fold the dough on top of itself to form a ring for bagel or bialy shape.
For pizza, make a ball of dough and gently roll out into a disc shape / English muffin size.
Brush each ring with the egg wash if using and sprinkle on whatever spices you like.
Bake at 375 degrees for 15-20 minutes until brown.
For pizza, top each disc with pizza sauce and mozzarella or barbecue sauce and cheddar. Use whatever toppings you like.

Richard's Tips:
Self-rising flour contains baking powder, which helps the dough to rise.
This dough is fast, doesn’t need yeast and can be made and baked within an hour.
Use any meat you have in your fridge or freezer -- if you need to purchase, try a cooked rotisserie chicken and shred at home.
