Ingredients

  • 9 oz gluten free pizza dough
  • 1/3 cup BBQ sauce (gluten free & vegetarian BBQ sauce)
  • 2 cups mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 cup pineapple slices
  • 1/4 red onion
  • 1 jalapeño
  • 1 tsp coconut oil

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 475 degrees.
  • Heat the coconut oil over medium to medium high heat in a large pan. Cook the pineapple slices in the coconut oil for 20-25 minutes until they turn a nice caramel brown color. Flip the pineapple slices occasionally.
  • Slice the jalapeños and red onion.
  • Spread out the pizza dough until it is about 1/4 inch in thickness. You can decide whether you want to build up a crust around the outside of your pizza or not. 
    We recommend shaping the pizza crust sheet parchment paper and coating your hands with flour or olive oil to prevent the pizza dough from sticking. 
  • Spread the BBQ sauce over the pizza crust then add the mozzarella cheese. Top the pizza with the pineapple slices, jalapeño, and red onion.
  • Cook the pizza in a greased baking sheet or a pizza stone for 15 - 18 minutes at 475 degrees.
    If you are using a pizza stone you should put the pizza stone in the oven to heat ahead of time.

Notes

Measuring pizza dough. Are you having trouble figuring out how much pizza dough to use to make this Hawaiian pizza? If you are buying pizza dough at the grocery store then there should be a label on the pizza dough that displays the number of ounces in the bag. If you are making your own pizza, you should use around 1 1/2 cups of flour to make the appropriate amount of dough. 9 ounces of dough should be roughly enough to make a 12 inch pizza.
