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)

Pizzas

  • 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

  1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 220°C (430°F). Place the oven tray inside while preheating to ensure it becomes very hot, which helps crisp up the flatbread base during baking.
  2. Prepare the Hot Honey: In a small bowl, combine the honey, hot sauce, and chili flakes. Warm the mixture gently in the microwave for 10-20 seconds until slightly heated, then stir well. Let it cool before using. Alternatively, you can warm it in a small pot on the stove by bringing it to a simmer and then removing it to cool. Adjust chili flakes and hot sauce amounts according to your preferred spice level.
  3. Assemble the Pizzas: Spread a generous layer of tomato-based pizza sauce evenly over each garlic-infused flatbread. Sprinkle 2 cups of shredded mozzarella cheese on top. Arrange pepperoni slices evenly, followed by optional toppings like sliced black olives and fresh jalapeños. To prevent pepperoni from curling while baking, add a few extra mozzarella pieces over the pepperoni slices.
  4. Bake the Pizzas: Carefully remove the hot oven tray and place the assembled flatbread pizzas onto it. Return the tray to the oven and bake for 8-10 minutes or until the flatbread edges are lightly charred and the cheese is melted, golden, and bubbly.
  5. Finish with Hot Honey: Once baked, remove the pizzas from the oven and drizzle them with your desired amount of the prepared hot honey sauce. Serve immediately while hot. Save any leftover hot honey in a sealed container for future use.

Notes

  • Adjust the amount of chili flakes and hot sauce in the hot honey to control the spice level.
  • Using pre-warmed oven tray ensures a crispier flatbread base.
  • The garlic-infused flatbread adds an extra layer of flavor, but you can substitute with regular flatbread if desired.
  • Adding extra mozzarella over pepperoni helps keep the slices flat and prevents curling during baking.
  • Leftover hot honey can be stored in the refrigerator and used as a sweet-spicy drizzle on other dishes.
