Ingredients
Pizza
- 1 lb. pizza dough at room temp
- 1/2 cup Pizza Sauce
- ½ cup sliced or diced cooked ham (3-4 oz.)
- 8 oz. pineapple chunks drained
- 4 strips bacon cooked and crumbled.
- 2 cups mozzarella cheese whole milk/low moisture
Garlic Butter Parmesan Crust
- 1 tablespoon melted butter
- 1 teaspoon Parmesan Cheese grated
- ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
To Garnish
- red pepper flakes
- parsley
- oregano
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 450° F. Note: If you have a pizza stone, put it in the oven while the oven reheats for more even cooking and a browner, crispier crust.
- Slice each pineapple chunk into 2 thinner slices and place them in between paper towels. They contain a lot of moisture, so we want to absorb the excess juice before adding them to the pizza.
- Spread the dough into an even 12-inch circle. Poke holes in it with a fork to prevent the crust from bubbling up in the oven.
- Top with pizza sauce, then with the mozzarella. Add the ham, pineapple and bacon.
- Bake for 13 minutes and remove from the oven.
- Combine the melted butter, Parmesan cheese, and garlic powder. Brush it over the crust and return it to the oven.
- Bake for 2-3 more minutes, or until the crust begins to brown.
- Sprinkle with red pepper flakes, parsley, and oregano. Slice and serve!

Notes
- Pro Tips:
- Storage:
- To Reheat:
- Nutritional information is an estimate and is per slice. There are 8 slices in this recipe.
- Pizza Dough: You can use store-bought refrigerated pizza dough for this recipe for an easy shortcut, or you can make my easy homemade Pizza Dough Recipe!
- Mozzarella: Low Moisture Whole Milk mozzarella shredded from a block is definitely best for this recipe, it melts very well. (Don't use fresh mozzarella as it's too wet.) I like using Dragone or Galbani.
- Pizza Sauce: Rao’s makes a great pizza sauce, and I actually like Ragu’s pizza sauce as well. To add a smokey tang: Use 1/2 pizza sauce and 1/2 BBQ sauce on this pizza!
- Ham: Ham or Canadian Bacon are perfect in this recipe. It's a great way to make use of leftover ham.
- Pineapple: Be sure to pat the pineapple nice and dry on paper towels as they contain a lot of moisture. And check out my Pineapple Fried Rice recipe next!
- Store in an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 3 months. Leftover pizza freezes well.
- Place cold pizza on a rimmed baking sheet and cover with foil. (The foil prevents it from drying out.) Try to tent the foil so that it doesn’t stick to the top of the pizza.
- Place on bottom oven rack. Set oven to 275° F. Bake for 25-30 minutes.
- This is a little time consuming, but by far the best way to restore it back to its original consistency.
