Step 1

In a small bowl, combine warm water and yeast. Let it sit for 5 minutes until it becomes frothy.

Preheat your oven to 250°C (482°F) and place a baking tray inside to heat.

Step 6

In a mixing bowl, combine the low-fat Greek yogurt, low-fat sour cream, a pinch of nutmeg, and black pepper. Mix well and set aside.

Step 7

On a floured surface, roll out the dough as thinly as possible into a rough rectangle.

Step 8

Carefully transfer the rolled-out dough onto a sheet of baking paper.

Step 9

Spread the yogurt mixture evenly over the dough, leaving a small border around the edges.

Step 10

Scatter the thinly sliced onion and diced bacon on top.
