Ingredients

For the dough:

  • 2 ⅓ - 2½ cups all-purpose flour plus additional for kneading
  • 2½ teaspoons active dry yeast one packet
  • 1½ teaspoons granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1 teaspoon coarse salt
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1½ tablespoons olive oil
  • ½ cup warm water
  • ¼ cup pineapple juice

To make the pizza:

  • 2 tablespoons cornmeal
  • 3 tablespoons prepared BBQ sauce your favorite variety
  • 2 cups ham leftovers work great
  • ½ cup pineapple chunks, crushed, rings...
  • ½ cup red onion slices
  • 1½ cups shredded mozzarella cheese

Instructions

To make the dough:

  • In a large bowl, combine 1½ cups all-purpose flour, active dry yeast, salt, and dry ginger. Whisk to combine.
  • In a measuring cup, combine water and pineapple juice. Heat in a microwave until warm (110-115 degrees on an instant-read thermometer).
  • Pour the water/pineapple juice into the flour mixture and stir well to combine.
  • Add the additional flour to the bowl and stir to form a soft dough.
  • Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and hand-knead in additional flour (for 5-7 minutes) until the dough is no longer sticky.
  • Place the dough into a lightly oiled bowl, turn to coat, and cover with plastic wrap to rise in a warm, draft-free place until doubled (approximately 60 minutes).

To make the pizza:

  • Brush 1½ tablespoons oil on the bottom of a large skillet, and sprinkle with cornmeal.
  • Dived the risen dough into two pieces, with the bottom dough being slightly larger than the top dough.
  • Press the larger of the two doughs into the skillet, covering the entire surface.
  • Top the dough with your choice of prepared BBQ sauce, chopped ham, pineapple, red onion, and shredded mozzarella cheese, making sure to leave a ½" border around the circumference of the dough.
  • Roll or press the second dough out to a 12" round disc, and gently place the top dough over the pizza fillings in the skillet.
  • Cut a small vent hole in the center of the top dough and firmly press the top and bottom dough together to seal (I used the back of a measuring spoon).
  • Beat one egg and gently brush over the entire surface of the top dough.
  • Allow the pizza to sit and rest for 20 minutes before baking.
  • Preheat oven to 375-degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Bake the Hawaiian stuffed pizza in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the crust is puffed and a deep golden brown.
  • Cool for 15 minutes on a wire rack before slicing and serving.
