# Expert Suggestions:

01 -
  • The honey garlic sauce creates this sticky finger licking situation that is honestly addictive
  • It comes together in under 30 minutes but tastes like something from a fancy pizza place
  • You can customize the heat level to match exactly how spicy you like things
02 -
  • The sauce thickens quickly as it cools so work fast when spreading it on the flatbreads
  • Reserving that bit of sauce for the end makes such a huge difference in the final flavor
  • Watch the oven closely after 10 minutes because honey can go from golden to burnt fast
03 -
  • Warm your honey in the microwave for 10 seconds before measuring it pours out so much easier
  • Use a pastry brush for the sauce it really helps get into all those nooks and crannies
  • If your flatbreads seem soft before baking give them 3 minutes alone in the oven before adding toppings
