Instructions
Creating Honey Bear Pizza is simple and fun. Just follow these steps:
1. Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 475°F (245°C) to ensure it’s hot enough for a crispy crust.
2. Prepare the Dough: Roll out the pizza dough on a floured surface to your desired thickness. Transfer it to a pizza stone or baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
3. Add Sauce: Spread the pizza sauce evenly over the dough, leaving a small border for the crust.
4. Layer Cheese: Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese generously over the sauce.
5. Add Toppings: Distribute the pepperoni, bell peppers, and red onion evenly on top of the cheese.
6. Drizzle Honey: Drizzle honey over the entire pizza, allowing it to seep into the toppings.
7. Season: Sprinkle garlic powder and dried oregano on top for added flavor.
8. Bake: Place the pizza in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbly.
9. Cool: Once baked, remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes.
10. Garnish: If desired, add fresh basil leaves for a burst of color and flavor before slicing.
By following these straightforward steps, you will create a pizza that is not only delicious but also visually appealing!
