INGREDIENTS

  • Dough Base

    • 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
    • 1 teaspoon granulated sugar
    • 3/4 teaspoon instant yeast
    • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
    • 💧 1/4 cup water
    • 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
  • Toppings

    • 1/2 cup marinara sauce
    • 1 cup mozzarella cheese
    • 1/4 cup pepperoncini
    • 🍕 12 slices pepperoni
    • 1/2 pepper jalapeño

STEPS

1

Combine flour, sugar, yeast, and salt in a food processor and process until combined, about 3 seconds. With processor running, slowly pour cold water and oil through the food chute and process until dough forms a sticky ball that clears the sides of the bowl, 45 seconds to 1 minute.

2

Lightly oil a work surface and set dough ball on top; knead until smooth, about 1 minute. Shape dough into a tight ball and place in a large bowl greased with oil. Cover bowl with plastic wrap and allow dough to rise at room temperature until almost doubled in size, 1 hour 30 minutes to 2 hours.

3

Preheat the oven to 500 degrees F (260 degrees C). Place a pizza stone on the lowest rack in the oven.

4

Transfer dough to a lightly floured work surface and gently re-shape into a ball. Coat dough ball lightly with flour and flatten into an 8-inch disk using your fingertips. Using a rolling pin, roll dough into a 12‑inch circle, dusting dough lightly with flour as needed.

5

Dust a pizza peel with cornmeal and transfer dough circle on top. Spread marinara sauce on dough, leaving a 1/2-inch border around the edge. Top evenly with mozzarella, pepperoncini, pepperoni slices, and sliced jalapeño.

6

Carefully transfer pizza onto pizza stone in the preheated oven and bake until edges are golden brown and cheese is melted, about 10 minutes.

7

Remove from oven; drizzle with hot honey and sprinkle with basil.
