Dough Preparation

1. Activate Yeast

In a small bowl, combine warm water, sugar, and yeast. Allow it to sit for about 5-10 minutes until frothy.

2. Mix Dry Ingredients

In a large mixing bowl, combine flour and salt.

3. Combine and Knead

Make a well in the center of the flour mixture and add the activated yeast and olive oil. Mix until a dough forms and knead for about 5-7 minutes until smooth.

4. Let the Dough Rise

Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover with a clean cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.

Pizza Assembly

5. Preheat Oven

Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C).

6. Roll Out Dough

Once the dough has risen, punch it down and roll it out on a floured surface to your desired thickness and shape.

7. Add Sauce

Transfer the rolled-out dough to a pizza stone or baking sheet. Spread the tomato sauce evenly over the base.

8. Layer the Toppings

Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese over the sauce, followed by the diced ham and pineapple chunks. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle dried oregano on top.

9. Bake the Pizza

Place the pizza in the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbly.

10. Slice and Serve

Remove the pizza from the oven, let it cool for a few minutes, then slice and serve hot.
