Bourbon Honey Cheddar Flatbread

Bourbon Honey Cheddar Flatbread

Ingredients:

  • 1/4 cup and 1 tbsp Bourbon
  • For the pizza:
  • 1 premade plain or beer pizza dough, room temperature
  • 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
  • 2 grapefruits, sliced and segmented
  • ¼ cup plus 1 Tbsp bourbon
  • 2 Tbsp brown sugar
  • ¼ cup honey
  • 3 sprigs fresh thyme
  • ¼ cup picked fresh thyme leaves
  • Cornmeal, for dusting

Directions:

Serves 4-6

Prep Time: 15 minutes

Cook Time: 20 minutes

Preheat the oven to 475°F with a pizza stone inside.

Sprinkle a cutting board with cornmeal, place the dough on top, and stretch and flatten to desired size. Top with cheddar cheese.

Line a sheet pan with parchment paper and arrange the grapefruit segments. Drizzle with bourbon and sprinkle with brown sugar. Top with thyme sprigs.

Place the pizza on the preheated pizza stone and the grapefruit sheet pan into the oven. Bake for about 6 minutes, checking periodically for brownness underneath the pizza crust. Add or subtract time based on your preferred level of doneness.

Once done, remove both the pizza and sheet pan, reserving the drippings from the grapefruit pan. Remove thyme leaves from stems. Top the pizza with roasted grapefruit segments, a drizzle of the reserved drippings, honey, and thyme leaves. Slice and serve.
