# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • The honey garlic sauce creates this incredible sticky glaze that caramelizes in the oven
  • Perfect balance between spicy Sriracha heat and soothing honey sweetness
  • Ready in 30 minutes but tastes like it came from a specialty pizza joint
02 -
  • That honey-based sauce will bubble up aggressively so use a baking sheet with raised edges
  • Brush some olive oil on the flatbread edges before baking to prevent burning
  • Let the sauce cool slightly before brushing onto the flatbread or it might make the bread soggy
03 -
  • Toast the flatbreads for 2 minutes before adding sauce to prevent sogginess
  • Mix some of the sauce into the shredded cheese before sprinkling for extra flavor in every bite
