Welcome to PizzaTin, the home of all things pizza here at RecipeTin Eats!
Pizza Toppings
If this feels like a Domino’s menu for homemade pizza – GOOD! That’s what I’m going for – and this list will continue to grow with time as I add more pizzas. To kick off PizzaTin, here are recipes for our top 10 favourite pizza toppings plus a list of extra pizza topping ideas. Use a store-bought or homemade pizza crust (it takes 40 seconds, there’s no excuses!). Don’t have yeast? Use this Magic No Yeast Pizza Dough! Are you ready to get your pizza fix??
Popular Favourite Pizza Toppings
Traditional pizza toppings that are firm favourites – always have been, always will be!
1. Pepperoni
Lots of pepperoni, and lots of cheese! This firm favourite deserves it’s place at the top of the PizzazTin list. Ingredients: Pizza sauce, mozzarella, pepperoni
2. Supreme
Hot on the heels of pepperoni is Supreme, THE pizza I grew up with. The one rule I have about supreme? It’s gotta have at least TWO meats. Otherwise, it’s just another pizza….😉 Ingredients: Pizza sauce, mozzarella, bacon, onion, beef mince, capsicum, pepperoni, mushroom, olives
3. Hawaiian (Ham & Pineapple)
If you think you don’t like Hawaiian pizza, that’s because you haven’t tried homemade! I used to be one of “those people”…😂 Ingredients: Pizza sauce, mozzarella, ham, pineapple
4. BBQ Meatlovers
You don’t even need to use a fancy BBQ sauce here. Any generic store bought BBQ sauce is fine – this one is all about the toppings! Ingredients: BBQ sauce, mozzarella, pepperoni, bacon, cabanossi, beef mince, ham
5. Garlic butter prawns and chilli
Huge Aussie favourite, a pizza topped with garlic prawns AND finished with a drizzle of garlic butter. Heaven in the form of a pizza! Ingredients: Pizza sauce, mozzarella, garlic butter prawns, capsicum, onion, chilli, rocket
6. Sausage & Kale
If there was ever a way to get someone to eat kale, this is it! Ingredients: Pizza sauce, mozzarella, sausage, kale

This combination of cheeses is just spectacular! The little pops of blue cheese is sheer perfection. Ingredients: mozzarella, parmesan, provolone, blue cheese
4. Prosciutto and rocket
Another firm favourite, paper thin slices of prosciutto is perfect paired with peppery rocket (arugula). I could eat this every day! Ingredients: Pizza sauce, mozzarella, prosciutto, rocket/arugula, extra virgin olive oil
5. Garlic Cheese Pizza
Garlic bread – in pizza form! Get the recipe for Garlic Cheese Pizza here – I created a standalone recipe for it, including a recipe video.
