Easy hawaiian tortilla pizza with grilled pineapple

If you are looking for a quick Hawaiian pizza in a fix, then look no further than this version made with a flour tortilla. It’s crispy and so easy to make,

I made these 10-minute pizzas with tortillas. I always have them on hand in my cupboard, or after the pack is opened, I seal and keep them in the freezer. They are perfect for whipping up a very thin base pizza when the craving rears its head.

In the past, I have made them bianco (white) and with pears and blue cheese. You can just put whatever you like on.

As for Hawaiian pizzas, the well-loved children’s favourite, I would have to admit that I do love this flavour combination. I don’t order it in a restaurant, but when my nephews come over for pizza night, I make it for them. I eat it with them, and I love it with them.

With this version I’ve made it a teeny bit more sophisticated and grilled the pineapple slices first, giving them a nice mellow caramel flavour. I added chilli which just lifts it up a notch, and I used a combination of mozzarella and mature cheddar. I bought an imported dry-cured, smoked ham from the Trentino Alto Adige region of Italy. Marketed as ‘Speck’ in Woolies, but it’s a Parma-style ham. Melt in the mouth delicious. I used 2 slices cut into 4 per pizza.

I use ready-made tomato sauce, tomato passata or tinned tomatoes which I crush to a smooth paste, draining any excess liquid.

Preheat the oven to 200 C and spread a thin layer of sauce over the tortilla base. Crush a pinch of dried oregano and dried chilli flakes (optional) onto the sauce, and scatter grated mozzarella and cheddar lightly and evenly. Place pieces of grilled pineapple and ham, and bake for 8 – 10 minutes until bubbling and just starting to brown on the edges.

A sprinkle of salt and black pepper finished off this quick and easy snack.

Whatever you do, I hope your day is filled with love xx
