Ingredients

1 cup of chopped pineapple
2 tablespoons of olive oil
1 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese
1/4 cup of sliced cooked ham
1 portion pizza dough
1/2 cup tomato sauce or barbeque sauce

Directions

Preheat the oven to 500 ºF (260 ºC).
Follow the steps in the pizza dough recipe to make the dough.
Transfer the dough to the baking tray. Using your fingers, spread the dough ball from the center to the edge. Try not to press the outermost edge of the dough. Leave the edges a little thicker, about 1/2 inch long and wide.
Brush a little olive oil on the dough to make the crust more crispy when baked and to prevent the dough from getting wet.
Spread the pizza sauce evenly on the dough.
Then put the shredded mozzarella cheese, ham and pineapple.
Bake the pizza for about 12-15 minutes, until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted.
Serve it hot.
