What other fruit ( pineapple is wellknown ) would tast good on a pizza? That was the question i asked during lunch at school. The results off that class..
Passionfruit, watermelon and Strawberry were the favorite ones to be tasted.
Bad idee was kiwi, apple and cherrys.

What do you think?

Figs are amazing.

Tomato is pretty popular in a sauce form, not a fan of the fruit myself though.

In seriousness, I could see pear being good. Pears on a grilled cheese sandwich is fantastic.

Local pizza place near me has a pear pizza that carries the name of the restaurant (so they must be proud of it?). It is:

  • fresh mozzarella
  • shaved pear
  • caramelized onions
  • hot honey (I think this means honey with a little red chili in it)
  • pistachios

They offer/suggest adding prosciutto to the pizza (after baking), which we usually do.

It's damn fine.

I've seen thin slices of apple or pear with something like goat cheese.

Lemon (and/or lime) makes almost everything better when utilized properly, spicy sausage with lemon ricotta for example. I bet you could make a ridiculously delicious pizza with preserved lemon too. Lime would pair well with Mexican-inspired or Asian-inspired pizzas.

...tomatoes, olives, peppers, zucchini...

Fig and Pig is a great combo for pizza!

Pear works well on white pizza

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 2 hours ago

Apples work well on white pizza as well. Perhaps OP only tried with red sauce, which I imagine wouldn't be very good.

But indeed there's a local pizza place around where I live that does a simple olive oil base topped with creamy cheese, tart apples, arugula, and drizzled with balsamic glaze. It's utterly fantastic

[โ€“] [email protected] 6 points 6 hours ago

Possibly with walnuts and blue cheese.

I had Hawaiian with kiwi! It was good

They call it a Pizza New Zealand at my local pizza place, and it's pretty good!

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 4 hours ago

Sounds intriguing

[โ€“] [email protected] 23 points 9 hours ago (7 children)

Jackfruit! You can use it to make a mean vegan pulled "pork", it'd be great on a BBQ pizza.

Black Olives (or green, either way).

Why is apple a bad idea? Apple with pork and cheese is delicious :)

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 4 hours ago

People put American cheese on goddam apple pie for Christ's sake, apple on a pizza sounds waaaay better.

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 5 hours ago

My local favorite is apple slices+bacon, it's the best.

Pear, gorgonzola and arugula. It was delicious. I ate the whole thing and now I'm ashamed of myself.

Banana is a common topping in Sweden. Add some curry and peanuts while you're at it.

On of my local pizzerias has one with apple and it's actually one of my favorite!

But my number one is the "indian", which is basically chicken, curry, pineapple and raisin
