    Pineapple and onion pizza is my favorite go-to pizza, so I thought I would turn it into my favorite flavor combination - sweet and spicy. This pizza is sweet, spicy, and smoky.

    If you've never had chipotle in adobo sauce, they are smoked jalapeños in a spiced tomato sauce. Chipotle peppers are hotter than jalapeños because they are from fully-ripened jalapeños.

    As chiles ripen, the capsaicin (which cause their heat) increases. Chipotle peppers have a smoky taste.

    This is one of the easiest pizza recipes that you can make. You just mix chipotle in adobo sauce with some marinara sauce to spread on pizza crust, and top it with chopped pineapple and onion.

    I used an easy vegan gluten free pizza crust, which literally takes minutes to make, with no waiting time for it to rise.

    To wash it down, try my Pineapple Green Tea Kombucha recipe. A chipotle recipe to try is my Vegan Black Bean Lettuce Wraps.

    🧾 Ingredients

    Ingredients with labels.
    • Pizza crust: I used an easy homemade vegan gluten-free pizza dough. Use your favorite.
    • Marinara sauce: I used marinara sauce, but you could also use pizza sauce.
    • Chipotle in adobo sauce and the adobo sauce: Adds smoky spicy flavor. If you're gluten-free, make sure to check the labels. Many brands have wheat. I've included my favorite vegan gluten-free chipotle in adobo sauce below. BBQ sauce also tastes good, like I used in my Vegan Hawaiian Pizza.
    • Pineapple: Adds sweetness. You could also use red pepper pepper, mushrooms, or your favorite veggies.
    • Onion: Adds a pungent flavor. You could also use red onion.
    • Nutritional yeast: Adds a cheesy flavor. You could leave it off.
    • Red pepper flakes: Adds spice. You could leave it off.

    This is an overview of the ingredients. To see the full list of ingredients with measurements and instructions, see the recipe card at the bottom of this post.
