Ingredients
Scale
Hot Honey Mixture
- 1/4 cup honey (80g)
- 1 teaspoon hot sauce (such as Frank’s or Cholula)
- 1/2 teaspoon chili flakes (adjust for taste preference)
Flatbread Pizza
- 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 (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 220°C (430°F) and place the oven tray inside to heat thoroughly. This ensures the flatbread base crisps properly during baking.
- Prepare the Hot Honey: In a small bowl, combine honey, hot sauce, and chili flakes. Warm the mixture in the microwave for 10-20 seconds until slightly heated, then stir well. Allow it to cool before use. Alternatively, heat gently on the stove until simmering, then remove from heat to cool. Adjust chili flakes and hot sauce amounts to taste.
- Assemble the Pizzas: Spread a generous layer of pizza sauce over each garlic flatbread. Add a layer of shredded mozzarella, then evenly distribute the pepperoni slices, jalapeños, and black olives if using. To help keep pepperoni flat during baking, place extra mozzarella slices on top.
- Bake the Pizzas: Carefully remove the hot oven tray and place the assembled flatbread pizzas onto it. Return to the oven and bake for 8-10 minutes until the edges are lightly charred and cheese is golden and bubbly.
- Finish with Hot Honey: Once baked, drizzle the warm hot honey mixture over the pizzas to taste. Serve immediately and enjoy the exciting sweet and spicy flavor combination. Save any leftover hot honey for later use.
Notes
- Adjust the level of chili flakes and hot sauce in the hot honey mixture according to your spice preference.
- Garlic-infused flatbreads add extra flavor but you can substitute with regular flatbreads if unavailable.
- To prevent pepperoni from curling, add some extra cheese on top before baking.
- Leftover hot honey can be stored in an airtight container for up to two weeks and used as a drizzle on other dishes.
- Feel free to customize toppings with vegetables or different meats to your liking.
