What you’ll need

2 tools across 5 steps.

  • baking sheet (if roasting)Essentialstep 1
  • Rolling pinstep 1

Method

  1. 1

    Prepare the Dough

    Preheat your oven to 220°C (425°F). On a lightly floured surface, roll or stretch the pizza dough into a 12-inch (30 cm) round. Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet.

    For a crispier crust, pre-bake the dough for 5 minutes before adding toppings.

    Timer: 5 minRolling pinbaking sheet (if roasting)
  2. 2

    Add Sauce and Cheese

    Spread the tomato sauce evenly over the dough, leaving a small border for the crust. Sprinkle the cheese evenly over the sauce.

    Don't overload the pizza with sauce, as it can make the crust soggy.

    Timer: 3 min
  3. 3

    Add Ham and Pineapple

    Arrange the ham and pineapple evenly over the cheese.

    Pat the pineapple dry with paper towels to prevent the pizza from becoming too watery.

    Timer: 2 min
  4. 4

    Bake the Pizza

    Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.

    Rotate the pizza halfway through baking for even cooking.

    Bake: 15 min
  5. 5

    Serve

    Remove from the oven, let cool for a minute, then slice and serve immediately.

    Garnish with fresh basil or a sprinkle of red pepper flakes for added flavor.
