# Step-by-Step Instructions:

01 - Preheat oven to 425°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
02 - In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine honey, Sriracha, soy sauce, garlic, olive oil, and apple cider vinegar. Simmer for 2-3 minutes, stirring until slightly thickened. Remove from heat.
03 - Place flatbreads on the prepared baking sheet. Brush generously with the sweet heat honey garlic sauce, reserving some for drizzling after baking.
04 - Sprinkle mozzarella cheese evenly over the flatbreads. Top with red onion, bell pepper, cherry tomatoes, jalapeños, and crumbled feta.
05 - Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until cheese is melted and bubbly, and edges are golden.
06 - Remove from oven. Drizzle with remaining sauce and extra honey if desired. Garnish with fresh cilantro and red pepper flakes. Slice and serve immediately.

# Tips from hearthlykitchen:

01 -
  • The sauce comes together in minutes but tastes like it simmered all day
  • Perfect balance of spicy and sweet that keeps everyone coming back for seconds
  • Ready in 30 minutes but impressive enough for guests
02 -
  • The sauce thickens as it cools, so don't over-reduce it in the pan or it'll be too sticky to brush
  • Room temperature flatbread cooks more evenly than cold from the fridge
  • Letting the pizza rest for just 2 minutes after baking helps the cheese set slightly for cleaner slices
03 -
  • Brush the sauce all the way to the edges for maximum flavor in every bite
  • If your flatbread is very thick, bake it alone for 3 minutes before adding toppings
  • The sauce works brilliantly as a dipping sauce for the crusts
