Hawaiian Pizza

The famously debated pizza invented right here in Canada — sweet pineapple, savoury Canadian back bacon, and melted mozzarella on a classic tomato base. Beloved by families everywhere.

⏱ 35 minServes 4Canadian

Ingredients

  • 500 g store-bought pizza dough
  • 0.5 cup pizza sauce
  • 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 150 g Canadian back bacon (peameal or smoked), sliced
  • 0.5 cup canned pineapple tidbits, well-drained
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 0.5 tsp dried oregano
  • 0.25 tsp black pepper

Directions

  1. 1Preheat oven to 500°F (260°C) with a pizza stone or inverted baking sheet for 30 minutes.
  2. 2Pat pineapple tidbits completely dry with paper towels to prevent a soggy crust.
  3. 3Stretch dough to a 12-inch round on parchment and brush the border with olive oil.
  4. 4Spread pizza sauce over dough, then scatter mozzarella evenly.
  5. 5Arrange back bacon slices and pineapple evenly over the cheese; season with oregano and black pepper.
  6. 6Slide onto the hot surface and bake 10–13 minutes until crust is golden and cheese bubbles.
  7. 7Rest 2 minutes, then slice and serve.

💡 Fresh pineapple can be used instead of canned — just dice small and pat very dry. Smoked ham or prosciutto work as substitutes for back bacon if unavailable.
