Ingredients

Scale

Pizza Base

  • 1 lb pizza dough (store-bought or homemade)
  • 1 tbsp olive oil

Cheese & Toppings

  • 8 oz fresh mozzarella cheese, torn into pieces
  • 4 oz thinly sliced prosciutto
  • ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese

Finishing Touches

  • 2 tbsp hot honey
  • Fresh basil leaves, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C) to ensure it’s hot enough for a crispy crust and evenly melted cheese.
  2. Prepare the Dough: Roll out the pizza dough on a floured surface until it is about ½ inch thick, creating a uniform base for your toppings.
  3. Add Cheese: Evenly spread torn pieces of fresh mozzarella over the surface of the dough, ensuring full coverage for a melty, creamy texture.
  4. Layer Prosciutto: Place the thin slices of prosciutto evenly on top of the mozzarella to add a savory, slightly salty flavor.
  5. Drizzle Olive Oil: Lightly drizzle 1 tablespoon of olive oil over the assembled pizza to enhance browning and add richness.
  6. Bake the Pizza: Transfer the pizza to the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbly and melted.
  7. Add Final Touches: Remove the pizza from the oven and immediately drizzle with 2 tablespoons of hot honey to introduce a sweet and spicy contrast.
  8. Garnish and Serve: Sprinkle fresh basil leaves and grated Parmesan cheese over the top for added aroma and flavor before slicing and serving.

Notes

  • For extra crispiness, bake the pizza on a preheated pizza stone or baking steel.
  • You can adjust the amount of hot honey according to your desired sweetness and spice level.
  • Use high-quality prosciutto for the best flavor.
  • If you prefer a less spicy option, substitute hot honey with regular honey or a balsamic glaze.
  • Fresh basil leaves can be added after baking to maintain their vibrant color and aroma.
