Description
Homemade hot honey garlic flatbread pizzas bring Mediterranean street food magic right to kitchen counters. Crispy flatbreads topped with spicy honey, roasted garlic, and melted cheese promise an irresistible flavor journey you won’t soon forget.
Ingredients
- 2 flatbreads (naan or store-bought pizza crusts)
- 1.5 cups (360 ml) mozzarella cheese, shredded
- ¼ cup (60 ml) Parmesan cheese, grated
- ¼ cup (60 ml) honey
- 1 tbsp (15 ml) olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1–2 tsp (5–10 ml) hot sauce (Franks or sriracha)
- ½ tsp (2.5 ml) red pepper flakes (optional, for heat)
- Pinch of chili flakes (optional)
- Fresh basil or parsley, for garnish
Instructions
- Oven Preparation: Set the oven to 425F (220C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper for optimal heat distribution and easy cleanup.
- Flatbread Seasoning: Delicately brush each flatbread with a fragrant mixture of olive oil and minced garlic, ensuring even coverage across the surface.
- Cheese Layer: Generously distribute mozzarella and Parmesan cheeses over the garlic-infused flatbreads, sprinkling red pepper flakes for an optional spicy kick.
- Baking Process: Transfer the prepared flatbreads to the preheated oven and bake for 8-10 minutes until the cheese transforms into a molten, golden blanket and the edges crisp to a delightful golden-brown.
- Hot Honey Creation: While the pizzas are baking, craft the zesty hot honey by gently warming honey with hot sauce in a small saucepan, incorporating chili flakes for an extra layer of heat.
- Final Touch: Remove the sizzling flatbread pizzas from the oven and lavishly drizzle with the spicy-sweet hot honey, then garnish with a vibrant sprinkle of fresh herbs for a burst of color and flavor.
- Serving: Slice the pizzas into wedges and serve immediately while the cheese remains gloriously melted and the crust maintains its crisp texture.
Notes
- Spread mozzarella and Parmesan evenly to ensure consistent melting and prevent dry or overly greasy spots on flatbreads.
- Keep an eye on flatbreads during 8-10 minute baking window to prevent burning while achieving golden crispy edges.
- Customize hot honey by adding more or less hot sauce and chili flakes to match personal heat tolerance and flavor preferences.
- Select fresh, sturdy flatbreads that can hold toppings without becoming soggy, ensuring a crisp and satisfying base.
