  • Total Time: 1 hour 55 minutes
  • Yield: 12 servings

Ingredients

– 2 teaspoons dried yeast

– 1 cup lukewarm water (250 ml)

– 400 g plain flour plus extra for dusting

– 2 teaspoons salt

– 3 tablespoons olive oil

– 200 g cheese

– 150 g finely diced ham

– β…“ cup drained canned pineapple chunks (80 g)

– 1 tablespoon pizza sauce

Instructions

1-Start by preparing the dough: which is simple and rewarding. Dissolve the yeast in warm water and wait for it to bubble, then mix it with flour, salt, and olive oil to form a smooth ball. Knead this on a floured surface until it’s ready, and let it rise in an oiled bowl for about 30 minutes until it doubles in size.

2-Once the dough has risen: gently knead it again and roll it into a 20 cm disc. Preheat your oven to 200Β°C (180Β°C fan-forced) and line a baking tray with baking paper for easy cleanup. Add one cup of cheese, half the ham, and pineapple to the disc, then fold and knead until everything is evenly mixed.

3-Next: cut the dough in half and roll each piece into 3 cm thick logs. Cut each log into 12 pieces and roll them into balls. Arrange these balls in a spiral on the baking tray, cover them, and let them rise for another 30 minutes. Before baking, brush the dough with pizza sauce and scatter the remaining ham and pineapple on top for extra flavor.

4-Bake: for 15 minutes, then add the rest of the cheese and bake for 10 more minutes until it’s melted and the bread is fully cooked. Let it rest for 5 minutes before serving to keep it warm and tasty. Leftover dough can be frozen for up to two months and thawed overnight in the fridge, making this recipe even more convenient. quick meal ideas like this one are great for busy days.
