Preheat the oven to 400°F.
Mix together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Stir in 1 cup of the plain Greek yogurt. If the dough is too dry, then add a bit more yogurt, 1 tablespoon at a time.
Switch to kneading it all together by hand. Knead for 3-4 minutes, this is important for it to rise well.
Place the ball of dough on a piece of parchment paper. Dust the dough lightly with more flour.
Using a rolling pin, roll out into a narrow rectangle shape about 12 inches by 6 inches (30 cm by 15 cm).
Spread the pizza sauce, avoiding 1 inch from the long edge but ensuring you get it all the way to the short edges.
Sprinkle on 1 cup of the shredded mozzarella.
Sprinkle on the ham and pineapple (or 1 to 1 ½ cups of toppings).
Roll the dough from long edge to long edge and cut into 10 pieces.
Place each piece in a greased muffin tin. If some of the toppings fall out when you transfer, it’s totally fine! Just add them to the top of the rolls. The edge pieces often don’t get as many toppings, so we like to add the dropped toppings to those guys!
Bake at 400°F for 20 minutes.
Add the remaining ½ cup of cheese then place under the broiler until lightly browned.

You're welcome to add in 1-2 tablespoon of Italian herbs to the dough for more flavour.
Have fun with the toppings, you can scroll up to see our combo suggestions! You can use between 1 cup to 1 ½ cups of toppings. Having 1 ½ cups means it might be harder to roll so we don't recommend more than this.
Using plain yogurt that isn't Greek style means it will be more runny, so please add more flour.
You can easily swap the pizza sauce for alfredo, and that is equally delicious.
