Making Pepperoni Pizza with Hot Honey, Ricotta, Olives, and Basil is a simple process if you follow these steps:

1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C) to ensure a crispy crust.
2. Prepare the Dough: On a lightly floured surface, roll out the pizza dough into your desired shape (round or rectangular) and thickness.
3. Transfer to a Baking Sheet: Place the rolled-out dough on a baking sheet or a pizza stone.
4. Add Pizza Sauce: Spread the pizza sauce evenly over the dough, leaving a small border for the crust.
5. Layer the Cheese: Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese generously over the sauce.
6. Add Pepperoni: Evenly distribute the sliced pepperoni across the cheese.
7. Dollop Ricotta: Using a spoon, add dollops of ricotta cheese around the pizza for a creamy texture.
8. Sprinkle Olives: Scatter the sliced olives over the top for added flavor.
9. Season: Drizzle olive oil over the entire pizza and season with salt and pepper to taste.
10. 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.
11. Drizzle Hot Honey: Once out of the oven, immediately drizzle hot honey over the pizza for that sweet and spicy touch.
12. Garnish: Top with fresh basil leaves for a burst of color and flavor.
13. Slice and Serve: Allow the pizza to rest for a few minutes, then slice and serve.
