Instructions
Making Easy Sausage Ricotta Honey Hot Pizza is a straightforward process. Follow these steps for a delicious result:
1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C). If you have a pizza stone, place it in the oven to heat up as well.
2. Prepare the Dough: Roll out the pre-made pizza dough on a floured surface to your desired thickness. Transfer it to a pizza peel or a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
3. Add Olive Oil: Brush the rolled-out dough with olive oil to create a crispy crust.
4. Spread Ricotta: Dollop the ricotta cheese evenly across the surface of the dough, leaving a small border around the edges.
5. Add Sausage: Sprinkle the crumbled sausage over the ricotta, distributing it evenly.
6. Top with Mozzarella: Add the shredded mozzarella cheese on top, covering the sausage and ricotta.
7. Bake: Place the pizza in the preheated oven (or onto the hot pizza stone) and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and the crust is golden brown.
8. Drizzle Honey: Once the pizza is out of the oven, drizzle honey over the top. If desired, sprinkle red pepper flakes for a spicy kick.
9. Garnish: Add fresh basil leaves for an aromatic finish before slicing.
