Ingredients
Scale
Hot Honey Sauce
- 1/4 cup honey (80g)
- 1 teaspoon hot sauce (such as Frank’s or Cholula)
- 1/2 teaspoon chili flakes (adjust for taste preference)
Pizza Base and Toppings
- 2 garlic-infused flatbreads
- 1/2 cup tomato-based pizza sauce (130g, add more if desired)
- 2 cups shredded low-moisture mozzarella (180g, use more if needed)
- 12 slices pepperoni (or as preferred)
- Sliced black olives (optional)
- Fresh jalapeños, sliced (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 220°C (430°F) and place an oven tray inside to heat up. This ensures a hot surface that crisps the flatbread base during baking.
- Prepare the Hot Honey: In a small bowl, mix honey, hot sauce, and chili flakes. Warm the mixture in the microwave for 10-20 seconds until slightly heated, then stir well and let it cool. Alternatively, simmer gently on the stove and cool. Adjust chili flakes and hot sauce quantities to match your preferred spice level.
- Assemble the Pizzas: Spread a generous layer of tomato-based pizza sauce over each flatbread. Evenly sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese, then arrange pepperoni slices, jalapeños, and black olives on top. To keep pepperoni from curling, add a few extra mozzarella pieces over them.
- Bake the Pizzas: Remove the hot tray from the oven carefully, place assembled flatbread pizzas on it, and return to the oven. Bake for 8-10 minutes or until the cheese melts fully, bubbles, and the flatbread edges turn lightly charred and crispy.
- Finish with Hot Honey: Once baked, drizzle the prepared hot honey sauce generously over the pizzas. Serve immediately to enjoy the perfect combination of spicy, sweet, and savory flavors. Save any leftover hot honey for later use.
Notes
- Adjust chili flakes and hot sauce in the hot honey to make it milder or spicier based on your taste.
- Use garlic-infused flatbreads to add extra flavor to the base, or substitute with naan or pita if desired.
- For a vegetarian option, omit pepperoni and add more vegetables like bell peppers or mushrooms.
- If you want a crispier crust, consider prebaking the flatbreads for 2-3 minutes before adding toppings.
- Store leftover hot honey in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks.
