Ingredients

Dough

• 3 cups of regular flour
• 17g sachet of instant yeast
• 1 teaspoon of salt
• Pinch of sugar
• 2 tablespoons of olive oil
• 3/4 cup of warm water

Tomato Sauce

• 1 can of crushed tomatoes
• 1 clove of garlic
• 1 tablespoon of olive oil
• Large pinch of salt

Toppings

• 200g thinly sliced pepperoni
• 250g mozzarella cheese, sliced
• 230g can Crushed pineapple
• Honey, for drizzling

Instructions

1. In a stand mixer with a dough hook attachment, combine flour, instant yeast, salt, and sugar.
2. Add olive oil and warm water in a slow stream while mixing on medium speed.
3. Mix for 10 minutes until the dough is stretchy.
4. Place the dough in a warm, draft-free space, covered with a damp tea towel, and allow it to double in size. This may take an hour, or you can refrigerate it for slow proofing over the day. This is a great hack.
5. You can skip straight to the next step!
6. Once the dough has doubled in size, turn it out, knead it briefly, and divide it into two or four equal portions, depending on the pizza size you prefer.
7. Allow the dough balls to prove on a tray under a damp cloth for another 30 minutes.
8. Preheat the oven as hot as possible, using fan-forced if available.
9. Drain the crushed tomatoes through a papertowel lined sieve to remove excess water. Combine with garlic, olive oil, and a pinch of salt.
10. Dust a work surface with semolina or flour.
11. Take a dough ball and place it on the floured surface.
12. Using your fingers, press outward to create a fat crust on the outer rim and a thin center.
13. If you're concerned about transferring the pizza to the oven, move it to a baking tray now.
14. Spread 2-3 tablespoons of tomato sauce on each pizza.
15. Top each pizza with a quarter cup of mozzarella cheese.
16. Sprinkle crushed pineapple to taste.
17. Arrange the thinly sliced pepperoni on top.
18. Place the pizzas in the preheated oven and bake until they are golden, bubbling, and crisp, about 15 minutes.
19. Once out of the oven, drizzle the entire pizza with honey.
