The Perfect Hot Honey Pizza Recipe


  • Author: Elizabeth
  • Total Time: 22-25 minutes

Ingredients

• 1 batch of your favorite pizza dough, or 1 (16-ounce) store-bought pizza dough
• 1 cup (4 ounces) shredded mozzarella cheese
• 1/2 cup (2 ounces) shredded provolone cheese
• 1/4 cup (2 ounces) crumbled feta cheese
• 1/2 cup (4 ounces) thinly sliced pepperoni
• 1/4 cup (2 ounces) thinly sliced red onion
• 2 tablespoons (1 ounce) hot honey, plus more for drizzling
• 1 tablespoon (1/2 ounce) olive oil
• 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)


Instructions

  1. Prepare the Dough: If using homemade pizza dough, follow your preferred recipe to prepare the dough. If using store-bought, allow the dough to come to room temperature before rolling it out. Lightly flour a clean surface and use a rolling pin to stretch and shape the dough into a 12-inch circle, about 1/4-inch thick. Transfer the dough to a lightly greased baking sheet or pizza pan.
  2. Assemble the Pizza: Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C). Sprinkle the mozzarella, provolone, and feta cheeses evenly over the pizza dough. Top with the sliced pepperoni and red onion. Drizzle the hot honey over the top, making sure to cover the entire surface of the pizza.
  3. Bake to Perfection: Brush the edges of the pizza dough with the olive oil and sprinkle with the dried oregano (and red pepper flakes, if using). Bake the pizza for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly. Keep a close eye on the pizza towards the end to ensure the crust doesn’t burn.
  4. Finish with a Drizzle: Remove the pizza from the oven and immediately drizzle additional hot honey over the top, if desired. Let the pizza cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
