Making Hot Honey Pizza is straightforward when you follow these simple steps:

1. Preheat Your Oven: Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C). If using a pizza stone, place it in the oven to heat up.
2. Prepare the Pizza Crust: Roll out your pre-made pizza crust on a floured surface to your desired thickness. If using a store-bought crust, follow the package instructions.
3. Brush with Olive Oil: Lightly brush the crust with olive oil to enhance flavor and achieve a crispy texture.
4. Spread the Sauce: Evenly spread the pizza sauce over the crust, leaving a small border for the crust.
5. Add Cheese: Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese generously over the sauce.
6. Layer on Toppings: Add your preferred toppings, such as pepperoni slices or vegetables, evenly across the pizza.
7. Bake the Pizza: Transfer the pizza to the preheated oven (or onto the heated pizza stone) and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown.
8. Drizzle with Hot Honey: Once the pizza is out of the oven, drizzle the hot honey over the top, adjusting the amount to your desired level of sweetness and heat.
9. Garnish: Add fresh basil leaves and sprinkle with red pepper flakes for an extra kick, if desired.
10. Slice and Serve: Allow the pizza to cool for a few minutes before slicing it into wedges.
