Barbecue sauce dials up the sweet-and-savory goodness of pineapple pizza in this mouthwatering 30-minute meal. If you want the texture to be a little more chewy, use the short end of the baking range. You can use store-bought oil-free pizza crust or make your own with our basic WFPB Pizza Crust or our Quick Cornmeal Pizza Crust (Gluten-Free).

Ingredients

3 cups bite-size cauliflower florets
½ cup low-sugar barbecue sauce
½ of a 15-oz. can no-salt-added cannellini beans, rinsed and drained (¾ cup)
1 teaspoon ground cumin
Pinch cayenne pepper
1 oil-free whole wheat pizza crust
1 cup chopped fresh pineapple
¼ cup sliced scallions (green onions)
¼ cup chopped fresh cilantro

Instructions

Preheat oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. In a medium bowl toss cauliflower with ¼ cup of the barbecue sauce. In a small bowl mash beans with cumin and cayenne pepper.
Place pizza crust on the prepared baking sheet. Spread bean mixture over crust, leaving a ½-inch border around edge. Top with pineapple and the cauliflower mixture. Drizzle with the remaining ¼ cup barbecue sauce.
Bake 15 to 20 minutes or until crust is browned around edges and cauliflower is crisp-tender. Sprinkle with scallions and cilantro. Cut into wedges.

Made this and the crust came out wet and soggy. Everything looked good when it went in the oven. Not sure what happened.

How many servings does this Make? And calories? Trying to decide how many I would have to make to feed 7 people.

I made this with a regular white flour pizza crust. It was very delicious. I put the pizza on the top shelf and broiled it for the last 3 minutes. This helped carmelize the BBQ sauce which made it super good. Thanks for the nice recipe.

Can I use the FoK Homemade Vegan Oil Free Pizza Dough recipe with this? Do I need to bake it before adding the toppings?
