Ingredients:

1 cup water
240g
1 tbsp yeast
12g
3 cups all-purpose white wheat flour
380g
1 tsp salt
6g
2 tsp garlic powder
6g
2 tsp black pepper
4.20g
2 tsp dried oregano
3.60g
1 tsp dried basil
1.40g
2 cups pizza sauce
480g
2 cups mozzarella cheese
220g
2 cups pineapple
360g
4 slices ham
110g

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Dough:
- In a large bowl, combine warm water and yeast. Stir and let sit for about 5 minutes until frothy.
- Add the flour, salt, garlic powder, black pepper, dried oregano, and dried basil to the yeast mixture. Mix until a dough forms.
- Transfer the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead for about 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic.
- Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until it has doubled in size.
2. Preheat Your Oven:
- Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C). If you have a pizza stone, place it in the oven to heat up.
3. Assemble the Pizza:
- Once the dough has risen, punch it down and transfer it to a floured surface. Roll it out to your desired thickness (approximately 12 inches in diameter for a thin crust).
- Transfer the rolled-out dough to a parchment paper-lined baking sheet or a pizza peel if using a pizza stone.
- Spread the pizza sauce evenly over the dough, leaving a small border for the crust.
- Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese over the sauce.
- Evenly distribute the pineapple chunks and diced ham over the cheese.
4. Bake the Pizza:
- Transfer the pizza to the preheated oven. If using a pizza stone, slide the pizza (with parchment paper) onto the hot stone.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbly and slightly browned.
5. Serve:
- Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes.
- Slice and serve your delicious pineapple and ham pizza immediately. Enjoy!

Tips:

- Ensure the dough has risen properly by letting it rest in a warm place until it doubles in size, which may take about 1-2 hours.

- Use fresh pineapple for a juicier and more vibrant flavor compared to canned pineapple.

- Pre-bake the pizza crust for 5-7 minutes before adding toppings to prevent a soggy bottom.

- Evenly distribute the ham and pineapple for a balanced taste in every bite.

- For extra crispiness, bake the pizza on a preheated pizza stone or use a perforated pizza pan.

By following these steps and tips, you'll be able to create a delicious homemade pineapple and ham pizza that is sure to impress. The balance of sweet pineapple and savory ham along with a well-seasoned crust will make this pizza a favorite for any occasion. Enjoy your culinary creation with family and friends.
