Ingredients

  • 1/2 homemade pizza dough or 16 ounces refrigerated pizza dough
  • 1/2 cup of marinara sauce
  • 1 cup of diced smoked ham steak or sliced sandwich ham chopped into bite sized pieces.
  • 5 oz (3/4 cup) of fresh pineapple diced small (see notes)
  • 1 1/2 cups of shredded mozzarella
  • 1/2 cup of extra sharp cheddar cheese
  • 4 slices of cooked bacon, crumbled

Instructions

  • Allow cold pizza dough to sit at room temperature for 30 minutes before stretching.
  • Lightly oil a round baking sheet and stretch the pizza dough into a circle 12-14", depending on how thin you like your pizza.
  • Spread the sauce on the dough and top with the cheese, then sprinkle on the ham. Distribute the pineapple over the top. Don't overload the toppings with pineapple, or else the pizza will be soggy. Use just enough to get between all the ham pieces. Top with the crumbled bacon.
  • For a sheet pan pizza: Bake in a preheated 450℉ oven for 15-20 minutes, until the crust is browned and the cheese is golden and delicious.
  • For a pizza stone/steel: Preheat your oven to 500°F with the pizza stone inside. Stretch the dough into a 12-inch circle. Sprinkle cornmeal on a pizza peel, then place the dough on top. Add the sauce, cheese, ham, pineapple, and bacon. Carefully use the pizza peel to slide the pizza onto the hot stone. Bake for 10–15 minutes, until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbly.
  • Remove the pizza from the oven and let it sit for 5 minutes before slicing. Enjoy!

Notes

  • Dice any big chunks of pineapple into 1/2" pieces. This allows you to distribute the pineapple generously and keeps the pineapple chunks from falling off when sliced.
  • Canned Pineapple: One 8-oz can of pineapple chunks will be enough to top the pizza. Dice it small and drain it well. Pat dry with a paper towel before topping the pizza.
  • Frozen Pineapple: Thaw the pineapple, dice smaller if necessary and pat dry with a paper towel before using.
