Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Pizza Dough

    Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C). Roll out the pizza dough on a floured surface to your desired thickness. Transfer the rolled-out dough to a pizza stone or baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

  2. 2

    Assemble the Pizza

    Spread the San Marzano tomato sauce evenly over the pizza dough, leaving a small border around the edges. Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese evenly on top. Add slices of pepperoni and pickled jalapeños.

  3. 3

    Add Seasoning

    Drizzle honey over the toppings, and sprinkle with salt and black pepper to taste.

  4. 4

    Bake the Pizza

    Drizzle olive oil over the edges of the crust. Place the pizza in the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and the crust is golden brown.

  5. 5

    Garnish and Serve

    Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for a minute. Scatter fresh basil leaves over the top before slicing and serving.
