Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C) or the highest setting available.

  2. 2

    Roll Out the Dough

    On a floured surface, roll out the pizza dough to your desired thickness and shape.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Pizza

    Transfer the rolled-out dough to a pizza stone or baking sheet. Spread the San Marzano tomato sauce evenly over the dough.

  4. 4

    Add Toppings

    Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese over the sauce, followed by the pepperoni slices and pickled jalapeños.

  5. 5

    Bake the Pizza

    Place the pizza in the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbling.

  6. 6

    Drizzle with Honey

    Once out of the oven, drizzle honey over the pizza for a sweet contrast to the spiciness.

  7. 7

    Garnish

    Top with fresh basil leaves before slicing and serving.
