Ingredients

Scale

Pizza Base

  • 1 ball of pizza dough (approximately 12 inches)

Cheeses

  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 cup ricotta cheese

Toppings

  • 46 slices of prosciutto
  • 2 tablespoons hot honey (adjust to taste)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C) to ensure a high heat for a crispy crust.
  2. Prepare the Dough: Roll out the pizza dough on a floured surface to a 12-inch circle. Place it on a pizza stone or baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  3. Spread the Cheeses: Evenly spread the ricotta cheese across the surface of the dough, then sprinkle the shredded mozzarella over the ricotta to cover the base layer.
  4. Add Prosciutto: Tear the prosciutto slices into smaller pieces and distribute them evenly over the cheese layer.
  5. Bake the Pizza: Bake the pizza in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbly and slightly browned.
  6. Drizzle with Hot Honey: Remove the pizza from the oven and immediately drizzle 2 tablespoons of hot honey over the top to add a sweet and spicy kick.
  7. Serve: Let the pizza cool for a couple of minutes, then slice and serve warm.

Notes

  • For extra crispiness, use a pizza stone preheated in the oven.
  • If hot honey is not available, mix honey with a pinch of red chili flakes as a substitute.
  • You can add fresh arugula on top after baking for freshness and color.
