Cooking Steps
• Adjust rack to top position (top and middle positions for 4 servings) and preheat oven to 475 degrees. Wash and dry produce. • Sprinkle 3 TBSP flour over a clean work surface. Remove pizza dough from packaging and place on floured surface. Shape each piece of dough into a ball. (TIP: Spray your hands with nonstick cooking spray or dust with flour to prevent sticking.) Evenly sprinkle another 2 TBSP flour on top of dough balls. Cover with a clean kitchen towel and let rest at room temperature, 20 minutes.
• While dough rests, halve, peel, and thinly slice shallot. Core, deseed, and dice green pepper into 1-inch pieces. Thinly slice tomato into rounds.
• Once dough has rested 20 minutes, line a baking sheet (two baking sheets for 4 servings) with parchment paper. Working one dough ball at a time, carefully press and stretch dough into a rough oval shape and place on one side of prepared sheet. (TIP: If needed, use a rolling pin to help roll out dough.) Repeat with remaining dough (you’ll have two dough ovals per baking sheet). • Cover dough with a clean kitchen towel and let rest 15 minutes. TIP: This will make stretching the dough into a larger shape even easier!
• Use floured hands to press and stretch dough on baking sheet into larger oval shapes, about 10 inches long and 5 to 6 inches wide. • Spread dough with as much marinara as you like; sprinkle with mozzarella. Top with as much shallot, green pepper, tomato, and pepperoni, as you like. Drizzle or brush edges of dough with olive oil.
• Bake pizzas on top rack until crusts are golden brown and crisp, 14-18 minutes. (For 4 servings, bake on top and middle racks, swapping rack positions halfway through.)
• Drizzle pizzas with hot honey to taste. Slice pizzas as desired. • Divide between plates and serve with ranch dressing on the side for dipping.

Reviews from our home cooks
This Bee Sting Hot Honey Pepperoni pizza was delicious! It was a nice mix of sweet, spicy, and savory! The hot honey added just the right amount of heat to balance the rich mozzarella and spicy pepperoni. The crust turned out perfectly crisp, and the red pepper and onion added a nice depth of flavor. Definitely one of our new favorites.
LOVED these pizzas! However, we did not bother with the Hot Honey or the Ranch. The pizza dough was very easy to work with and the sauce and toppings very generous. Please consider offering other variations of this one - maybe a chicken pesto with pine nuts and red bell pepper (I prefer that to the green personally, at least on pizza). Please offer more!
The pizza was sooooo good! GREAT dough flavor and fun to make! Maybe I didn't make mine large enough -- it was hard to stretch the dough, but that's just an observation not necessarily feedback. I know how dough can be lol. I love how the pepperoni was packed. I feel like it would be nice to have more mozarella and more sauce just in case people prefer more sauce or more cheese. I think the hot honey was great (possibly could've been spicier).
This was really good. However I didn't use the pablano pepper (saving it for another recipe) and the hot honey. I made a small salad and used the ranch dressing for it. It does need a little more flavor like salt or garlic salt and mushrooms would be nice too. Glad I ordered this again on the order I just got yesterday. I want to see this meal available to order again and again.
Best pizza ever please keep this on my menu.. I would however say that the mikes hot honey is just a little too sweet and not as hot as I would like it but the pizza was delicious. Ate both in less than 5 min. Please keep on menu
A household favorite! We add additional vegetables and mozzarella to it and wish it came with more hot honey, but the crust is nice and crispy, the sauce is tasty, and the pepperoni is flavorful.
This one TOTALLY SURPRISED US!! Was skeptical at first as dough didn't rise and wouldn't stretch much at first ... but after 2nd setting we managed to get the crust spread large enough (hard to get even thickness though) ... BUT... these flavors together were AMAZING!!!! Probably one of our FAVS!!! AND had 3 pieces left over for lunch the next day!! That little bit of hot honey drizzle totally makes this pizza!! YUM!!!
Delicious home made little personal pizzas. Would love more ranch and hot honey, I used 1 packet of each per personal pizza. Didn't put the tomatoes on some of the pizzas but would love jalapeños instead. The pep and hot honey with ranch to dip it in was my favorite.
Flavor was good but hot honey wasn't hot at all. Couldn't eat most of the pizza as the parchment paper melted to it in the oven and stuck to the crust
We have a local pizza place that serves hot honey pepperoni pizza and this was just as good!!! I loved it!!! Easy to make too!
