Scone Dough Pizza couldn’t be easier to make – pile on your favourite toppings! A very simple hassle free recipe that everyone will love.
Scone Dough Pizza is a fantastic recipe for those days when you’re really pushed for time.
It is literally made and on the table in 20 minutes.
Perfect for when your kids are suddenly struck down with a craving for pizza and you don’t want to wait around for dough to rise!
OK, this may not be a real deal pizza and I apologise if this offends any Italians, but quick, instant recipes like this are a life saver on a busy week day when you’re up against the clock.
You don’t need any yeast to make this recipe – and you can use the dough straight away.
Ingredients you will need:
- Self Raising Flour.
- Fine Salt.
- Cold butter.
- Yoghurt. You can use either Greek or plain yoghurt (preferably full fat)
- Pizza toppings. This one I’ll leave up to you – use whatever you have to hand. Tinned sweetcorn, cold meats such as ham, pepperoni, chorizo slices, cooked bacon, mushrooms, onions, peppers…the only limit is your imagination.
TIPS for making scone dough pizza
- You can use pretty much any toppings you like. Any leftover meat/veg you have in the fridge would be great, but don’t weigh the pizzas down with too much toppings or the base wont cook properly on the bottom and will go quite soggy.
- The thinner you roll out the dough, the quicker the pizzas wil take to cook. I try and roll them out to around the thickness of a 50p piece.
HOW to make scone dough pizza
(scroll to the bottom of the post to find printable recipe)
- Place self raising flour and a pinch of salt in a bowl. Add cubed cold butter and rub in until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs.
- Pour In the yoghurt and lightly mix in until you have a soft, slightly sticky dough. It takes a minute or two to come together.
- Cut the dough into 8 pieces. Dust a work surface with flour and roll each piece out into mini pizza sizes.
- Spread with tomato sauce and top with your desired toppings! Sprinkle with some dried mixed herbs or oregano and lightly drizzle each pizza with olive oil.
- Remember the more toppings you use, the longer the pizzas will take to cook.
- Cook for 10-12 minutes or until golden and cooked through. The cooking time will depend on how thick the bases are, so they may take a few minutes longer to cook right through.

I love the sound of this scone dough! I quite regularly make the pizza dough from Nigella’s HTBADG but there have been times when I’ve been pushed for time and wished I had a quicker recipe. I will definitely keep this in mind! And I’m glad to hear that you’re back in cooking mode now π I can’t decide if I’ve lost my cooking mojo or not … it seems that I’m cooking much more sophisticated food for our baby these days!
