Essential Ingredients

Here’s what you’ll need to make this delicious dish:

  • Flatbread: Store-bought or homemade, flatbreads provide a crispy base for all the toppings you’ll pile on.

  • Shredded Mozzarella Cheese: Use fresh mozzarella for a melt-in-your-mouth experience; it adds creaminess.

  • Hot Honey: Look for a good quality hot honey that balances sweetness with just enough heat to excite your palate. Sweet potato hash.

  • Fresh Arugula: This peppery green adds a refreshing contrast and elevates the flavors beautifully. Creamy pepper jack pasta.

  • Olive Oil: A drizzle enhances flavor and helps achieve that golden crust.

  • Balsamic Glaze: Drizzled on top, it adds an extra layer of sweetness and complexity.

  • Crushed Red Pepper Flakes: For those who like an extra kick; sprinkle as desired!

The full ingredients list, including measurements, is provided in the recipe card directly below.

Let’s Make it together

Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 475°F (245°C). A hot oven is essential for achieving that crispy flatbread base.

Prepare Your Flatbread Base: Place flatbreads on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Brush each one lightly with olive oil to enhance flavor and crispiness.

Add the Cheese Layer: Generously sprinkle shredded mozzarella over each flatbread. Make sure to cover all edges so every bite has cheesy goodness.

Drizzle Hot Honey: Carefully drizzle hot honey over the cheese before baking. This way, it melts into the cheese, creating a syrupy layer of flavor as it cooks.

Bake Until Golden Brown: Slide the baking sheet into the oven and bake for about 10-12 minutes until the cheese bubbles and turns golden brown. Keep an eye on them—nobody wants burnt pizza!

Add Fresh Toppings: Once out of the oven, immediately scatter fresh arugula on top along with any crushed red pepper flakes. The residual heat will slightly wilt the arugula without losing its freshness.

Finish with Balsamic Glaze: Drizzle balsamic glaze over everything right before serving for that extra touch of elegance. It’s like putting a cherry on top—just way cooler!
