Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Pizza dough
- 6 sticks String cheese
- 0.5 cup Pizza sauce
- 2 cups Shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 cup Cooked ham (chopped)
- 1 cup Pineapple chunks (drained)
- 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 2 tablespoons All-purpose flour (for rolling)
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C). If you're using a pizza stone, place it in the oven to heat up while you prepare the pizza.
Lightly flour a clean surface and roll out the pizza dough into a 12-inch circle.
Place the string cheese near the edge of the dough, leaving a 1-inch border around the perimeter. Roll the dough over the string cheese to enclose it fully, pinching the edges to seal it tightly.
Carefully transfer the dough to a baking sheet or a pizza peel (if you're using a pizza stone).
Spread the pizza sauce evenly over the base, leaving the stuffed crust uncovered.
Sprinkle 1 1/2 cups of shredded mozzarella cheese over the sauce.
Evenly distribute the chopped ham and pineapple chunks on top of the cheese.
Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup of mozzarella cheese over the toppings, followed by the dried oregano.
Brush the stuffed crust with olive oil to help it brown while baking.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbly and melted.
Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for 2-3 minutes before slicing and serving.
