Equipment

  • 1 pizza stone (For crispy crust)
  • 1 Pizza Cutter (For even slices)

Ingredients

  • 1 pound pizza dough - room temperature
  • ½ cup pizza sauce - zesty tomato base
  • 2 cups mozzarella cheese - shredded
  • ½ cup pepperoni slices - cup and char style
  • ½ cup ricotta cheese - whole milk
  • 3 tablespoons hot honey - chili-infused
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano

Instructions 

  • Preheat your oven to 475°F and roll out the dough on a floured surface to your desired thickness.
  • Spread pizza sauce over the dough and top with shredded mozzarella and pepperoni rounds.
  • Drop small spoonfuls of ricotta cheese across the surface to create creamy pockets of flavor.
  • Bake for 10-12 minutes until the crust is golden and the cheeses are bubbling and slightly charred.
  • Drizzle with hot honey and garnish with fresh herbs immediately before slicing and serving.

Notes

Preheat your oven and baking tray thoroughly for a crispier crust. Use whole milk ricotta for the creamiest texture that won't dry out in the oven.
