How to make Veggies Pizza with Pineapple
Start by preheating your oven to 475F and make a batch of my Quick Neapolitan Pizza Dough, which makes two 12-inch pizzas.
1. Divide the pizza dough in two. Stretch out one of the balls of dough and place on a greased pizza pan.
2. Spread a thin layer of tomato sauce on the dough. Sprinkle on the grated mozzarella cheese.
3. Place the vegetables, including the pineapple pieces, on top of the shredded cheese. Sprinkle on a little more shredded cheese and the dry oregano on top.
4. Bake the Veggies Pizza with Pineapple in the preheated 475F oven. Cook the pizza for 15-20 minutes or until the crust is a nice golden color. Remove from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes before cutting into it. Garnish with optional fresh cilantro for an extra burst of flavor!
Substitutions and Variations
- Cheese - Change out the mozzarella in this recipe for any type of block cheese, like Marble Cheddar, Monterrey Jack, or even Gouda.
- Sauce - Try switching out the tomato sauce for your favorite BBQ sauce or even an alfredo sauce for a completely different flavor profile.
- Meat - Feel free to add meat to this pizza recipe. Add small cubes of ham for the classic Ham and Pineapple taste, or change it up with chopped cooked bacon.
Storage
Store any leftover Veggies Pizza with Pineapple in ait tight containers. Place in the refrigerator overnight, but I would recommend freezing the pizza if keeping it for longer then a day. Reheat the pizza very easily in the microwave or air fryer for a quick lunch or snack.
