Description
A delicious twist on garlic bread, this hot honey garlic bread pizza combines the sweetness of honey with savory flavors for a unique appetizer or main dish.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 large garlic bread loaf (store-bought or homemade)
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- ½ cup ricotta cheese
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- ½ teaspoon red pepper flakes (adjust to taste)
- ½ teaspoon dried oregano
- Salt and black pepper, to taste
- ¼ cup hot honey (store-bought or homemade)
- Fresh basil leaves, for garnish (optional)
- Grated Parmesan cheese, for serving
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- If using frozen garlic bread, bake it according to the package instructions until it is slightly toasted but not fully cooked (about 5-7 minutes). Remove from the oven and set aside.
- In a small bowl, mix the olive oil, minced garlic, red pepper flakes, oregano, salt, and black pepper. Spread this mixture evenly over the top of your garlic bread loaf.
- Crumble the ricotta cheese evenly over the garlic bread, spreading it out to create a nice layer.
- Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese generously on top of the ricotta.
- Return the garlic bread pizza to the oven and bake for an additional 10-12 minutes until the cheese is bubbly and golden.
- Once the pizza is out of the oven, drizzle hot honey generously over the top, ensuring every slice gets a taste of that sweet heat.
- Let it cool for a minute, then slice into pieces. Garnish with fresh basil if desired and sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese before serving.
Notes
