Description
A quick and delicious flatbread pizza topped with gooey cheese, crispy pepperoni (or your favorite toppings), and a drizzle of spicy hot honey for the perfect sweet-heat balance — ideal for a fast dinner or party appetizer.
Ingredients
- 2 naan or flatbread pieces (store-bought or homemade)
- 1/2 cup pizza sauce (or marinara)
- 1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- 12–15 slices pepperoni (or cooked chicken, bacon, or veggies)
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1/4 tsp crushed red pepper flakes (optional)
- Hot Honey:
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1–2 tsp hot sauce (like Sriracha or Tabasco)
- 1/4 tsp chili flakes (optional, for extra heat)
- Fresh basil or parsley for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Place naan or flatbread on the prepared sheet and brush lightly with olive oil.
- Spread a thin layer of pizza sauce over each flatbread.
- Top with shredded mozzarella cheese and pepperoni (or your chosen toppings).
- Bake for 8–10 minutes, or until cheese is melted and bubbly and the edges are golden brown.
- Meanwhile, in a small saucepan or microwave-safe bowl, combine honey, hot sauce, and chili flakes. Warm gently until just melted together.
- Remove pizzas from the oven and drizzle hot honey generously over the top.
- Garnish with fresh basil or parsley, slice, and serve immediately.
Notes
- For a crispier crust, bake the flatbread directly on the oven rack for the last 2 minutes.
- Try different toppings like prosciutto, caramelized onions, or goat cheese for variation.
- Hot honey can be made ahead and stored in a jar at room temperature for up to 1 month.
- Use whole-grain or gluten-free flatbread to fit your dietary preferences.
