Description
A delicious and cheesy pizza topped with hot honey, fresh ricotta, and mozzarella, creating a delightful flavor combination.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pre-made pizza dough (store-bought or homemade)
- 1 cup fresh ricotta cheese
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1–2 tablespoons hot honey (to taste)
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- Fresh basil leaves (for garnish, optional)
- Crushed red pepper flakes (for extra heat, optional)
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C) to ensure a crispy crust.
- Prepare the Dough: Roll out the pre-made pizza dough on a lightly floured surface to your desired thickness.
- Add Olive Oil: Transfer the dough to a pizza stone or baking sheet and brush the surface with olive oil to enhance the flavor and prevent sticking.
- Spread Ricotta: Spoon the ricotta cheese evenly over the dough, leaving a small border for the crust.
- Sprinkle Mozzarella: Top the ricotta with shredded mozzarella cheese for that glorious, melty goodness.
- Season: Sprinkle with dried oregano, garlic powder, salt, and pepper to taste.
- Bake: Place the pizza in the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbly.
- Finish with Hot Honey: Remove from the oven and drizzle hot honey over the pizza while it’s still hot.
- Garnish: Add fresh basil leaves and optional crushed red pepper flakes for an extra kick.
Notes
- For a crispier crust, make sure the oven is fully preheated.
- You can adjust the amount of hot honey based on your spice preference.
- Feel free to add more toppings such as vegetables or meats if desired.
