Description
This Spicy Honey Ricotta Pizza combines creamy ricotta with a spicy honey drizzle for a sweet and savory flavor explosion.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pizza dough (store-bought or homemade)
- 1 cup ricotta cheese
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes (adjust to taste)
- 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh basil leaves for garnish
- Olive oil for drizzling
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C). If using a pizza stone, place it in the oven to heat up.
- Roll out the pizza dough on a floured surface to your desired thickness.
- Transfer the dough to a baking sheet or a pizza peel if using a pizza stone.
- In a bowl, mix the ricotta cheese with salt and pepper to taste. Spread the ricotta evenly over the pizza dough.
- Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella and grated Parmesan cheese over the ricotta layer.
- Drizzle the honey over the cheese and sprinkle the red pepper flakes evenly on top.
- If using a pizza stone, transfer the pizza onto the stone. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbly.
- Once done, remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool slightly. Drizzle with olive oil and garnish with fresh basil leaves.
- Slice and serve immediately.
Notes
- Feel free to adjust the amount of red pepper flakes based on your spice preference.
- For an extra kick, you can add sliced jalapeños on top before baking.
