Make This Ham & Banana Crispbread Pizza

I always start by gathering all of the ingredients needed in a recipe and weighing and measuring everything before I start to cook or bake. This part is really important and key in keeping everything organized.

To make this recipe you will need the following ingredients:

  1. Rye crispbread round
  2. Tomato sauce/pizza sauce
  3. Grated mozzarella
  4. Sliced ham

This pizza is best same day but you can store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days. Reheat in the oven.

Notes & Substitutions

Toppings: This recipe is really just to give you the idea of using rye crispbread as a pizza crust, if you don’t like the toppings feel free to use your favorite pizza toppings instead. Anything is delicious on this crust!

Where Can I Get Crispbread? I have used both rye crispbread rounds (Knäckebröd) that are sold at IKEA by the IKEA brand. And Leksands rye crispbread that comes both in rounds and pre cut triangles, which you can use for individual pizza slices.

What Does It Taste Like?

Ham and bananas on a pizza is something I have been eating since I was a kid. It is often served at restaurants and pizza places here in Iceland. If you like cooked bananas, your definitely going to love this combination.

The crust is crunchy before baking but after baking it becomes slightly soft and chewy, but still crispy on the edges. I think it has the perfect texture for a quicker and healthier way of making homemade pizza.
