Directions
- If using a pizza stone, place it in the oven and preheat to 230°C (450°F) for at least 30 minutes. If using a baking sheet, preheat the oven and lightly oil the sheet.
- While the oven heats, prepare the hot honey by combining honey and red pepper flakes in a small saucepan over low heat. Warm for 5 minutes, then remove from heat and let infuse while you prepare the pizza.
- Dust your work surface with flour and stretch or roll the pizza dough into a 30cm (12-inch) round. If the dough springs back, let it rest for 5 minutes before trying again.
- Sprinkle cornmeal on your pizza peel or the back of a baking sheet to prevent sticking.
- Transfer your stretched dough to the cornmeal-dusted surface, reshaping if needed.
- Brush the outer edge of the dough with olive oil and sprinkle with a pinch of salt.
- Spread the pizza sauce evenly over the dough, leaving a 2cm (1-inch) border for the crust.
- Sprinkle the mozzarella cheese evenly over the sauce.
- Arrange the pepperoni slices across the pizza, slightly overlapping them.
- Sprinkle dried oregano over the top.
- Carefully slide the pizza onto the preheated stone or baking sheet and bake for 12-15 minutes, until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbly and lightly browned.
- Remove the pizza from the oven and immediately drizzle with the hot honey, focusing on the pepperoni pieces.
- Let the pizza cool for 2 minutes before slicing to allow the cheese to set slightly.
Notes
- For an authentic crispy crust, a pizza stone is ideal, but a preheated baking sheet turned upside down also works well as a budget-friendly alternative.
