Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, combine warm water, active dry yeast, and honey. Stir gently and let it sit for 5-10 minutes until frothy.

- Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C) and heat the skillet over medium heat with olive oil.
- Punch down the risen dough and roll it out. Transfer to the hot skillet, pressing the dough to the edges.
- Spread marinara sauce over the dough, sprinkle mozzarella, layer pepperoni, blue cheese, and parmesan.
- Bake in the oven for 12-15 minutes until cheese is bubbly and crust is crispy.
- Drizzle hot honey over the pizza before serving.
- Allow to cool slightly before slicing and serving hot.
